Once again the folks in our community came through for those in need.

From April 17 to June 1, Townsquare Media and Toyota of Laramie collected teddy bears and other stuffed animals so that first-responders could distribute them to children during their patrol. We received 963 bears to distribute to awesome organizations.

The bears will be distributed to children during traumatic situations. We organized drop-off locations all around Cheyenne and Laramie. The good people of our community came out with piles of stuff toys for the cause. Each organization was ecstatic to the good work done by the community.

The video above shows us dropping the stuffed animals off at the local police and fire stations, the Sheriff's Department, and Child Services in Cheyenne.
