A Beary Special Delivery to CHAMPION!

Mandy and Adriana from Volunteer for Knox dropped by on Wednesday with 35 adorable teddy bears, each with its own name and dressed in very cute handmade knitted outfits.

These cuddly little friends will soon be making their way to children visiting CHAMPION — ready to share plenty of smiles, cuddles, comfort and a whole lot of joy!

A huge thank you to the Sunny Room Knitters at Coonara Community House for creating these beautiful outfits, Volunteer for Knox and everyone involved in the Teddy Bear Project.
