Cuddle Bear Drive Northern CA

My name is Melissa Ullom and I am an Usborne Books & More Independent Consultant. I am excited to team up with more than 200 book ladies around the US to run a Cuddle Bear Drive in honor of Pediatric Cancer Awareness month.

Last year our team donated more than $57,000 worth of books and bears to local NICUs, PICUs, hospitals, and charities across the country. This year I am excited to be personally donating to Sutter’s Children’s Center in Sacramento! The Children’s Center is a comprehensive pediatric medical center, which serves as the regional referral center for neonatal and pediatric care for more than 27 counties and 50 hospitals throughout Northern California, Southern Oregon, and Northern Nevada. All Cuddle Bear Books and Plush Sets will be given to the Children being treated in this hospital’s PICU, Oncology, and Pediatric Units. 

In addition to brightening the day of a sick child, 5% of every donation will go to the Scott Carter Foundation to help find a cure for Pediatric Cancer. Last year we were able to donate over $26,000 to Pediatric Research! This year we'd like to DOUBLE our contribution, and I would love for you to be a part of it.

Would you consider making a donation to our Cuddle Bear Drive? Each Cuddle Bear Plush and Book Set costs 25.00, but any donation amount is accepted! PLUS Usborne Books and More is partnering with Literacy for a Lifetime who will match our donations at 50%!! That means if you donate 50.00, we can buy THREE cuddle bear sets with your donation alone! 

Thank you for your considered donation!
