First Responder Teddy Bear Drive at Build-A-Bear Workshop

First Responder Teddy Bear Drive at Build-A-Bear Workshop

This was our first teddy bear drive since Covid wreaked havoc. Because of this, we had to be creative and only fundraise online the past three years.

Fast Forward to the present!

With months of anticipation and planning, the big day finally arrived! Our team consisted of 9 volunteers, AMR Paramedic Antonio, and Beary Awesome Build-A-Bear Staff. Our day was filled with music, dancing mascots, arts and crafts, gummy bears, dedicated volunteers, generous and caring donors, and lots of teddy bears!

We had a wonderful show of friends, community members and shoppers, showing their support for our little kiddos. We ended the day with 118 teddy bears. I call it a successful day!

A BIG THANK YOU to all who volunteered and to all who came out to show their support!!
