Our Troops need Teddy Bears - please help!

By
Real Estate Agent with Sutton Group-Associates Realty Inc., Brokerage

Hi everyone,

A colleague in the business asked for my help, and I am asking each and every one of you who can help, to do so ... this is a great cause.

Our troops are expecting a shipment of teddy bears from us.
The teddy bears will be air lifted to meet up with the troops on February 13th - we must have all donations in by February 10th at the latest.

Those teddy bears will then be distributed to the children, most of whom have no toys.
This will be their only possession, in most cases. 
These teddy bears will bring smiles to a lot of children in schools and in hospitals.

 

 

Do you know a teddy bear who needs a new home?

Do you have any you want to donate?

Do you know any children who would not mind parting with one, for this great cause?

All teddy bears need to be delivered to the Royal Page office at Winston Churchill & Eglinton (Plantation office, Mississauga), on or before February 10th. 

If you cannot deliver them yourself, you can call Royal LePage Teddy Bear Hotline, and they will pick up. 

If you and your office can manage to collect quite a few, and put them in a large box, have them delivered by UPS to the Royal LePage office, I will help with the courier charges ... whatever I can do, to motivate you to get the teddy bears there on time (on or before February 10th).

Teddy Bear Hotline:  905-828-1122   or 1-888-828-0422
_____________________________________________

I know times are tough for everyone, but I know we must all have a Teddy Bear at home somewhere; one we probably love but haven't looked at in months ... and I'm sure both the Teddy and the child would be much happier together.

Please help!

THANK YOU ! ! ! !

Great cause, Liz.  Unfortunately, some people don't think so.  They're against the war, and can't see past that.

I don't like the war either, but it's the troops and the children I'm thinking about.

Hello Syvie and friends - This Teddy collection was a big success. Sylvie, did you receive the photo of A FEW of the bears before they flew out to their new homes? In all over 400 bears travelled on Valentine's Day to cheer the lives of little ones in Afghanistan. Thanks to the generosity of many people who gave these children now have some comfprt in an otherwise shaken world and distraught time. Helping these children is the goal. And together we did it. Many are asking if we will repeat this event. Yes we will - start collecting -stay tuned - next time will be fall 2009- and we will give more advance notice. THanks to all for making this a successful mission! Jennifer Rockburne, Royal LePage
