Our SLOTH WORLD Story -
In December of last year, we were excited to learn that Sloth World was planning to open in the Orlando area. We reached out to the owner about carrying our existing Hanging Sloth craft kit in their gift shop, and they enthusiastically welcomed the idea. They even requested custom-designed two-toed and three-toed sloth kits that would be created exclusively for them.
We entered into a written agreement to produce 50–75 kits per day, an opportunity that would have been truly transformative for our small business. We poured our hearts into developing the designs and were incredibly excited about the partnership.
Then, earlier this year, communication suddenly stopped. After months of uncertainty and unanswered messages, devastating news began to emerge about the sloths. While it was heartbreaking to learn what happened, we are grateful that we are no longer connected to their business.
The surviving sloths have since been relocated to the Central Florida Zoo & Botanical Gardens just ten minutes from our home in Sanford, where all of our crafts and props are designed and produced.
To help support the sloths’ ongoing medical care and rehabilitation, we donated 50 of our sloth craft kits to be sold by Sanford Main Street as a 100% fundraiser benefiting the zoo and the rescued animals.
If you’d like to help, please stop by the Sanford Welcome Center to pick up a craft kit, and check out the matching fundraiser t-shirt as well. Every purchase directly supports the care of these unique animals.
