MetroDolls would like to share a little about what we have
planned for this year. You may have already heard that we are taking a break
this year from holding our luncheon, but our charitable endeavors will continue
with a very special fund raising drive.
In memory of Paula Kagan, MetroDolls will be holding a
series of auctions and doll sales to benefit The Guide Dog Foundation for the
Blind. Paula was a dear friend and generous supporter of MetroDolls as well as
an advocate of numerous animal charities.

In the next week, MetroDolls will unveil the first doll in
our charity drive to be auctioned off on eBay . This beauty is a one of a kind
jewel by Robert Tonner that once graced Paula's own collection. More
information will be posted on our blog and doll boards very soon!
On another note, we were very saddened on the passing of
club member Rene Mandel last winter. Twenty-five dolls from Rene's collection have
been given to us for the purpose of MetroDolls fund raising. These dolls are now posted on our web site under the tab Rene's Dolls at the top of the page. Be sure to check them out!
Be sure to check back for more
details and information on all we're doing including announcements on future
luncheon plans!
