I can hardly believe that just six months ago, I reported shipping the first five handmade teddy bears to comfort children in Israel. I’m now happy to report, on behalf of the Teddy Bear Sisterhood, that we’re shipping our 100th bear! Another way you can help: If you know someone who is traveling to Israel this summer, fall, or beyond, and would be willing to squeeze a few teddies into their suitcase, please let me know. I can ship anywhere in the US. It will still be quicker and less expensive than shipping to Israel. And a big thank-you to all of you who have donated for shipping costs.To participate, finishingtouches18@gmail.com –Esther
