Venezuelan nonprofit gives outgrown playthings a makeover, donates them to vulnerable kids

The doll's golden curls are intact, and soon her head is, too. One by one, the toys that show the wear and tear of love are restored for the holidays: sewed and combed, stuffed and dressed. From Barbie dolls to a Kung Fu Panda character with a paw raised in triumph, the toys that have been left behind by children are made ready for new children. This is the work of the Hospital for Stuffed Animals, a project in Venezuela's capital whose volunteers pick up the pace this time of year.
