Daruma Dolls
Marchforth International Ltd. is a brand management company based in Tokyo and the company behind the brand We Love Daruma, which makes traditional Daruma dolls and a line of Daruma Kids products.
We are pleased that We Love Daruma has selected Children's HeartLink as one of its charitable causes! For every traditional Daruma doll sold, We Love Daruma will donate a portion of the proceeds to Children's HeartLink.
Daruma dolls are closely associated with a beloved Japanese proverb, nana korobi yaoki, which means, “Fall down seven times, get up eight.” The Daruma doll's unique rounded shape allows it to return to its original position even if it’s knocked over, reminding us all to be persistent and to never give up on our aspirations.
See the We Love Daruma website for more information and to purchase the Daruma dolls.
