The Ryan Batchelder Foundation

The Ryan Batchelder Foundation The Ryan Batchelder Foundation, aka Little Hugs gives new stuffed animals to children who need comfort, letting them know that others care.

We provide comfort to children in need with the gift of a Little Hug stuffed animal, and sell Little Hug stuffed animals and inspirational t-shirts to sustain our ability to give. In addition, we support other causes that serve children in need. Our mission is to inspire hope and give love to children who are facing significant life challenges. Many of these children have been abused or neglected,

and moved from one temporary living situation to another with no sense of security. Some are traumatized by tragic loss or are confronting serious illness; and others live in extreme poverty. We believe the gift of something to cuddle provides security and demonstrates compassion that is healing to a hurting heart. In order to sustain our ability to give and not rely solely on donations, we sell “Little Hugs” stuffed animals with all profits going toward giving. When you buy a “Little Hug” for someone you know, you are also giving “Little Hugs” to other children who are truly in need. “Little Hugs” purchased as gifts are beautifully presented in a quality gift box wrapped with a bow. In addition to stuffed animals, we sell shirts embellished with inspirational phrases. These profits go to other select causes that improve the lives of children. Our hope is to continue to expand our offerings of quality, inspirational gift items and in so doing, increase our impact.
