Izzy Dolls can be delivered to the Ontario locations below:
All Izzy Dolls are created in memory of Master Corporal Mark Isfeld and intended for distribution to children in need as part of the Izzy Doll Initiative. They cannot be bought or sold, they must always given freely to children in need of comfort.
Please remember that Izzy Dolls must represent humans with natural skin tones from dark brown through to soft pink (sorry, no animals) and that they should be 5 to 6 inches in size as their original intent is to fit in the pockets of soldiers. Feel free to get creative with dress, hair length and colour, and accessories such as hats, scarves and belts!
We’d love for you to share your finished creations with the Knit for peace Facebook Page before sending them out! Thank you!
