\"\"<\/a>Huggable Bears Making A Difference<\/h2>\n

Assistance League of Inland North County provides soft cuddly teddy bears to agencies that help children in crisis situations. These adorable bears are a gift from the heart \u2013 softening the sting of a traumatic situation and enabling the service provider to reach out when words fail or are not enough. At times this sweet bear has also been known to comfort an adult in need.<\/p>\n
