Newtown Bound Bears & Beyond prepares to kick off their Second Round of donations and is asking for YOUR help!!

Jonna and Janice are proud and honored to announce that we have officially delivered all of our donated bears that we have received over the last few months!  Our recipients have been very grateful and appreciative, and we know that the programs we chose to deliver our Newtown-Bound Bears to have all been very excited to become part of our "family"!

The locations that we have donated to so far include Children's Medical Center in Hartford, Yale-New Haven Hospital in New Haven, the Ronald McDonald House in Valhalla, NY, Family & Children's Aid in Danbury, Camp Sunshine in Saco, ME, Ronald McDonald House in New Haven, and the New Haven Fire Department!  

We are now getting ready to kick off the next phase, ROUND TWO!!  And this time we are hoping to make deliveries and carry the memory of the Newtown angels to farther distances to spread our message of hope and love!!
