Alex's Fluffy Buddies

I had my fundraiser Saturday and raised more funds to buy more Fluffy Buddies! All the cookies are gone now but I did have 2 leftover for myself😊
Special thank you to Jennifer Boresz Engelking, Christine Whaling Castelletti, Leisa Kay, Peter D'Amato for their generous, continued support!❤️🧸
You can still buy signed books from Jennifer by visiting her page to order. If you like local history, these are perfect books for yourself or to give as a gift!

She's the best author i know (and I actually know a few!) And she gives back to the community too!

Heather Ann wanted to hire someone to make hook covers. Alex offered to do it and made these cute covers for her.

We would like thank Heather Ann for her generous donation of $75 to Alex's Fluffy Buddies as a thank you for Alex's work!

She has also set up a Fluffy Buddies collection site for Alex so people can donate new stuffed animals!

Thank you Heather for your donation and time supporting Alex's cause!💕 🧸
