If you are having a hard time finding an excuse to get rid of some of your stuffed teddy bears in your dorm or room and you are tired of finding them on the floor covered in dust and ignored, then now is the time to let a needy child love them just as much as you have.

The UTM Rotaract Club is conducting a teddy bear drive through March 1 with all proceeds going to local children in need.

"Show us you care and give a teddy bear," said publicity officer Amanda Hassell. She said they have been working really hard since February 19 and they hope to have a great turn out in the end. They are accepting new and used teddy bears as long as they are in good condition.

You can make a donation at any of these locations: E.W. James in Martin, Gooch Hall, Brehm Hall, Browning Lobby and the UC Help Desk

The Rotaract Club is strictly volunteer work. They donate every penny raised and as much help as they can. You may have participated in the past with their Christmas project when they sent dolls over seas. You may have even noticed the huge Christmas tree in the UC which they decorated, and again donated all proceeds.

The Rotaract Club meets every Thursday. If you need some help expanding your community service portion of your resume, or just feel as if you should give back to the community, then contact Ashley Niven at utmrotaract@hotmail.com for more information.

Please help a child less fortunate by allowing them to hug and love one of your teddy bears that you do not want anymore.
