Get ready to learn about this incredible woman’s inspiring story of turning pain into purpose. My guest today, Jessica Bachus, discusses how she was able to turn a difficult life situation into impacting many children’s lives.
Dolls for Daughters® was founded in 2007 after Jessica Bachus’ daughter Kenzi was stillborn at 24 weeks. Overcome with grief, she felt compelled to channel her emotions into something that would honor Kenzi’s memory. With this notion, Dolls for Daughters® was created so that Jessica and her family could provide dolls to young girls at Christmastime who would otherwise go without. Jessica collected over 150 dolls the first year. Since then Dolls for Daughters® has come a long way. In 2017 Dolls for Daughters® provided toys and more to 11,512 children in the state of Colorado. Since 2007 more than 47,200 children in Colorado have been given toys and more from this program. In June 2018 Dolls for Daughters® & Kenzi’s Kidz became Kenzi’s Causes. This change was made to encompass their vision for the future and the addition of other programs that impact low-income children in Colorado.
Jessica has a servant heart and this episode will leave you with inspiration to give back to your community.
