About Joy Doll Hospital

Founded in Fredericksburg, Virginia in 2019, by then 12-year-old,
Leah Barcus, Joy Doll Hospital is a 501(c)(3) non-profit charity whose mission is to help children in crisis be given a message of hope. Joy Doll Hospital collects used and damaged American Girl Dolls and restores them to look brand new. The dolls are packaged, including extra outfits and accessories, then presented to children through various local, national and international support and crisis intervention organizations.


Messages are included with the dolls to remind the children that as difficult as the past or present may be, there is HOPE and there is someone who cares, and wants to bring them JOY!


Sponsors provide funds to purchase needed supplies and further the work of Joy Doll Hospital and its founder, the youngest member of the international Doll Doctors’ Association, as she solely prepares and restores dozens of 18” American Girl dolls for gifting through children’s
homes and various youth crisis intervention organizations, like Safe Harbor Child Advocacy Center.

How You Can Help:

  • Donations of 18” American Girl dolls in any condition are accepted, including 18” doll clothing, shoes, and wigs. 
  • Financial support is also needed to cover doctoring supplies and distribution. Donations are greatly appreciated and can be made HERE.
