Although she was only 7 months old, she gave other children a chance to live. When Madeline passed away this past August, her organs were donated so that other children could have hope.<br />Madeline’s Mission was organized to celebrate the life of Madeline and help provide comfort to children while they are hospitalized awaiting transplants or other medical procedures. It is also our hope that through Madeline’s Mission individuals will realize the importance of organ donation.<br />Madeline’s Mission will be donating bears to transplant patients at Egleston Children’s Hospital in Atlanta, as well as to participants in summer camps Egleston hosts each year for former transplant patients. In addition, Madeline’s Mission teddy bears will also be given to children hospitalized at Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital and Sumter Regional Hospital.<br />Paper Madeline’s Mission teddy bears are available to purchase for $1 or greater, depending on the purchasers wishes. The paper bears can be signed by the donor and will be displayed at the various businesses selling them throughout Southwest Georgia. T-shirts are also available for $10. Tote bags displaying the Madeline's Mission logo are available for $10. The funds raised by Madeline’s Mission will be used to purchase stuffed teddy bears that will wear a small t-shirt displaying the Madeline’s Mission logo, as well as a statement honoring Madeline’s short life. These bears are also available to purchase for $15.00. <div><div> </div><div>The Teddy Bear</div><div> </div><div><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_x4aNsCh3InY/SXjy0kJyqKI/AAAAAAAAAAw/Ev2xz2dwkUg/s1600-h/New+Camera+008.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5294248346845882530" style="WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_x4aNsCh3InY/SXjy0kJyqKI/AAAAAAAAAAw/Ev2xz2dwkUg/s400/New+Camera+008.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><br /><br />Front of t-shirt<br /></div><div></div><div><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_x4aNsCh3InY/SXjy1G99weI/AAAAAAAAAA4/ps7wvlre1lg/s1600-h/New+Camera+013.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5294248356191519202" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_x4aNsCh3InY/SXjy1G99weI/AAAAAAAAAA4/ps7wvlre1lg/s400/New+Camera+013.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><div> </div><div>Back of T-shirt</div><div><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_x4aNsCh3InY/SXjy1Zdl2oI/AAAAAAAAABA/VMXuC2mo3XQ/s1600-h/New+Camera+011.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5294248361156008578" style="WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_x4aNsCh3InY/SXjy1Zdl2oI/AAAAAAAAABA/VMXuC2mo3XQ/s400/New+Camera+011.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><div> </div><div>If you would like to purchase any of the above, please e-mail us at <a href="mailto:madelinesmission@gmail.com">madelinesmission@gmail.com</a> .</div><div> </div><div>If you would like to make a donation, you may send it to:</div><div> </div><div>Madeline's Mission</div><div>2220 Wallington Drive</div><div>Albany, GA 31721</div><div> </div><div>All checks can be made payble to Madeline's Mission.</div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div>Click below to read the newspaper articles on Madeline's Mission.</div><div> </div><div><a href="http://www.albanyherald.com/stories/20090114n1.htm">http://www.albanyherald.com/stories/20090114n1.htm</a></div><div> </div><div><a href="http://www.americustimesrecorder.com/local/local_story_001205954.html">http://www.americustimesrecorder.com/local/local_story_001205954.html</a></div><div> </div><div>Also below is the media clip for Madeline's Mission.</div><div> </div><div><a href="http://www.walb.com/global/story.asp?s=9677256">http://www.walb.com/global/story.asp?s=9677256</a></div><div> </div><div>We would like to thank the following businesses and organizations for participating!</div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center">Accelerated Physical Therapy<br />Albany Eye Care<br />Albany Herald<br />Americus Times-Recorder<br />BB&amp;T of Montezuma<br />Bright Beginnings<br />Butterfly Kisses<br />Central Baptist Church of Americus<br />Citizens Bank of Americus<br />Clinic Drug Store<br />Christie Feed &amp; Seed<br />Colony Bank<br />Crisp Academy<br />Deerfield-Windsor School<br />Dental Partners of Southwest Georgia<br />Doc Heilinbel’s<br />DOCO Regional Federal Credit Union<br />Dougherty County Exceptional Student<br />Draw Products<br />First Baptist Church Albany<br />First State Bank of Albany<br />First State Bank of Leesburg<br />Firstate Bank of Americus<br />Flint Community Bank<br />The Garden Center<br />George Men's Wear &amp; Tailor Shop<br />Goodie Two Shoes Shoppe<br />Harrison Graphic Designs<br />Junior League of Albany<br />Junior Service League of Americus<br />Kappa Delta Sorority<br />Lee County Schools<br />Lollipop Kids<br />Make Room for Baby<br />Merry Acres Middle School<br />PeoplesSouth Bank<br />Pediatria<br />Perdue Elementary<br />Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital<br />Place on the Pointe<br />A Room or Two<br />Security Bank and Trust<br />Sigma Chi Fraternity<br />South Georgia Technical College<br />Southland Academy<br />Southwest Georgia Living Magazine<br />Southwest Georgia Pediatrics<br />Sumter Regional Hospital<br />SB&amp;T of Americus<br />SunTrust Bank<br />The Tot Shop, Inc.<br />Turner’s Fine Furniture<br />U Save It Pharmacy<br />United Rentals<br /></div><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_x4aNsCh3InY/SXjy0kJyqKI/AAAAAAAAAAw/Ev2xz2dwkUg/s1600-h/New+Camera+008.JPG"></a> </div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1277704248276811258-4530852792885866684?l=madelinesmission.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>madelinesmissionhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05919220626773792186noreply@blogger.com0
