Cork's Place Cuddle Bear Drive
DID YOU KNOW?!
1 in 5 children will experience the death of someone close to them by age 18? The pain of losing someone we care about can be excruciating
and children are not only left with the pain, but often the loneliness of their special person no longer being there. A friend, parent, cousin, grandparent, sister, brother...
With our Cuddle Bear drive THIS week, we are donating proceeds to the Scott Carter Foundation to pursue treatments and methods to END cancer! But THAT’S NOT ALL... we are giving sets of Cuddle Bear books and stuffed bears to kids in need of an extra cuddle. Each sponsored set will directly go to a child at Cork's Place in Kennewick, WA.
**WHAT IS CORK'S PLACE**Cork’s Place provides a safe and supportive environment where children, teens and families who are grieving a death can share their experience as they move through their healing process.
What a comfort to have a story about being loved AND a bear that you can hold onto when you're going through a hard and scary time. Sometimes it's the little things that mean the most - the cuddles and hugs that get you through fear and pain.
And YOU can join us...
To sponsor a child and give a Cuddle Bear book and stuffed animal set is only $25. But guess what!?!? The company I work with, Usborne Books & More, is matching our donations at 50% once we get 10 Sponsors!!! How amazing is that?! That means for every set you purchase, they donate an additional bear or book AND they give to cancer research!!! Your impact is getting multiplied!! Our GOAL is BIG! We want to donate 100 Cuddle Bear Sets! Together we can achieve more!
Here's how to help...
Donate $25 to Sponsor 1 child (each sponsored child will receive a Cuddle Bear Book & Bear) and spread the word! Are you on social media? Share our link!!
