Despite the heavy rains that sent our students home early on January 9, 2024, the Hershey Bears brightened our day by delivering a heartwarming surprise – stuffed animals! These adorable furry friends will find their way into the students’ classrooms over the next few weeks, bringing joy and comfort to our wonderful kids.
The Hershey Bears, known for their incredible support of our community, hosted the GIANT Teddy Bear Toss on Sunday, Jan. 7, 2024, at the GIANT Center. Fans, both young and young at heart, were encouraged to bring new or gently used teddy bears and plush toys to the game. The magic happened when the Bears scored their first goal, and the ice was showered with these cuddly companions. This season marked the 22nd GIANT Teddy Bear Toss event in team history, and an astonishing 74,599 stuffed animals were collected! 🎉
As part of their Hershey Bears Cares initiative, the Bears generously donated these teddy bears and stuffed animals to over 30 local organizations, including Vista Autism Services. We’re immensely grateful for their support and the smiles they’ve brought to our students’ faces.
