PUDDLE’s gift bag items, treasure drawings, and contest prizes are all generously donated by our wonderful sponsors. (When you donate items worth at least $25, you get your name or shop name on our Sponsors list!)

Can’t decide what to donate? Here is a list of things we REALLY love to get:

  • Small items for gift bags (up to 144 each — if you can’t do a full 144 items, sets in multiples of 5 help us out the most, but we will accept any quantity!), such as
    • Pens
    • Hair clips, headbands, other headwear or accessories for dolls
    • Individual outfit pieces (underwear, skirts, socks, hats etc.)
    • Doll-size toys and stuffies
    • Photo props (think Rement)
    • Eyechips
  • Medium identical items for door prizes (minimum 8, maximum 150)
    • Cases of Rement
    • Gashapon or blind-box figurines
    • Groove stationery
  • Bigger items for treasure drawings, contest prizes, or other purposes:
    • Outfit sets for Groove dolls
    • Individual boxes of Rement and similar miniature-prop sets
    • MIO Kits, doll customizing supplies (like wigs and eyechips), or bait Groove dolls
  • Nude, redressed, full stock, or NRFB Groove dolls
