Me and my sister have started a non profit organization in rememerence of our father that passed away 4 years ago of Heart Disease something that he had battled half of his life. During the lat few years he was alive he was an avid collector of Teddy Bears so what me and my sister have decided to do is take all his bears he collected over the years and give them to the cancer paients and burn victims at some of the hospitals. It took a while to finally contact someone to let us do this and just yesterday we got a call from Shriners Burn Unit in Galveston Texas sayingthat they would love for us to come there and do this. Me and my sister are very excited about doing this our dad was always a giver he would give you the shirt off of his back you needed it so we just wanted to carry on his good name by doing this. As of last night Dec. 11, 2007 we had 80 bears and should be receiing more tonight. We are planning to continue this every year and even do it on more Holidays other than just Christmas. We are also going to be working on making a website with all the information and hopefully we can get pictures with the patients to be able to show the joy on their faces. If anyone would like to donate any type of stuffed animals we would greatly accept them they must be clean and in good condition for us to be able to pass them on to the patients. If you would like to do this send me a private message and I will give you my address to send them to. I realize that you may not know me at all but I can assure you that everything sent will be going to a good cause.
We have called our organization CARL CARES BEARS
I will be updating this blog next week to let everyone know how everything went.
Thank you and GOD BLESS
