FYI:
2015 Teddy Bears with Love Drive
In 1999, the Office of Alumni Relations at Fairfield University started what would come to be known as the first annual "Teddy Bears with Love" drive. Alumni across the country were asked to donate new, unused teddy bears to be donated to a local children's charity during the holidays
.
2015 marks our 16th year, and the Student Alumni Association continues to proudly spearhead this effort. Thanks to the generosity of thousands of alumni, families, students, employees, and friends of Fairfield University, over 17,000 bears and stuffed animals have been donated to dozens of charities not only in Connecticut, but across the country.
This year, we need your help once again to continue our tradition of bringing smiles to children all across the country! Collection events will be taking place in December in regional chapters across the country and on campus. If you cannot attend the event in your area, please contact your local representative to learn how you can still donate!*
For more information on times, dates, and locations, visit our Teddy Bears with Love Website. fairfield.edu/alumni-friends/get-involved/teddy-bears-with-love/
Bears may be also be mailed to the Office of Alumni Relations at:
