A labor of love

Carl Schatz

Meet Esther Schatz, a PebbleCreek resident, with her collection of toys for disadvantaged and at-risk children.

She purchases dolls and stuffed animals from second-hand stores, thoroughly cleans and repairs them, and then knits little outfits of clothing for each and every one.

She donates them to children in shelters. She will continue to do this as long as she can obtain suitable dolls and stuffed animals.

It’s a win-win activity. She loves doing it and bringing some happiness to the kids, and it’s great for the kids also.

Way to go, Esther!
