Operation
Teddy Bear collects all types of stuffed
animals and beanies to deliver to children
and the elderly that need a friend.
We
are collecting and will be distributing
throughout many states. It is
strictly volunteer with no overhead and no
salaries. We are personally
absorbing the expenses we incur. We
are not asking for cash
donations.
Operation
Teddy Bear was inspired by a project
called Santa's Shop for the non-profit
organization "Family Tree" held in
December 2004 in Golden,
Colorado.
We
were so filled with enthusiasm and the
idea of giving that we wanted to bring a
smile to children and elderly year round -
not just at Christmas!
Operation
Teddy Bear was up and running by January
15, 2005 and by February had a large herd
of animals to donate to those needing a
comforting friend.
We
would greatly appreciate you helping us in
any way you can.
Please
consider the smiles you will bring to the
faces of so many. Call us today. (303)
