BEAR MAKERS OF SOUTH WALES

CHARITY CHALLENGE 2005

In early June 2005 I set the girls of the Bear Makers of South Wales a CHALLENGE ! October 2005 was Breast Cancer Awareness Month, so I set the BMofSW members the task of making a pink bear (any shade or shades of pink, but they were also allowed to use white, cream and black in their designs ! ). The teds had to be completed by 1st October 2005. We then decided to auction these bears on eBay in the first week of November, to raise funds for Cancer Research UK. We have all lost relatives or friends to cancer and this seemed an appropriate way to help out. I'm happy to say that our team effort raised £175 for breast cancer research. I would like to thank the girls for their efforts and the people who bought or won our bears for their generous contributions to our cause.
