The Chinook Regional Hospital is hoping the community can come together and help share some comfort for kids when they need it the most.
The hospital’s pediatric and emergency departments have run out of stuffed animals, despite massive annual intakes of plushy pals provided annually by toy drives such as the Lethbridge Hurricane’s Teddy Bear Toss and the Southern Alberta Bikers’ Teddy Bear Ride.
Until November 16th, donations of new teddy bears and stuffed toys can be dropped off at the bin located at the south end of the Chinook Regional Hospital atrium. Any and all donations will help make sure children will continue to receive a new stuffed animal when are receiving treatment.
