| My name is Sheena Osman and I have been
selected as Miss Brampton International, one of the National
Delegates in Miss Canada International, the largest scholarship
achievement program for young women in Canada. I will be
competing in July 2009 with 30 delegates across Canada for the
title of Miss Canada International 2010. In order to compete
for the title of Miss Canada International 2010, I must complete
a Teddy Bears of Hope Project prior to June 1st 2009, by:
- Collecting 2,000 teddy bears or stuffed animals (can be
used or new).
- Each teddy bear must have a message attached from
their donator.
- Each teddy bear must include a toonie.
The purpose of this project is to give love and hope to
underprivileged children across the world and to fill an
emotional void that monetary donations can't as children know no
value to a dollar.
To date, the Teddy Bears of Hope Campaign has sent teddy bears
to Thailand, Afghanistan, Cambodia, Guatemala, Sri Lanka and the
Philippines. This year’s campaign will target the children of
Uganda.
I am seeking assistance from businesses, schools, stores or
anyone who may have any teddy bears or stuffed animals that they
are willing to donate or who are interested in starting their
own mountain of teddy bears in their company or school. This
will allow you to contribute to a worthy cause with a reputable
non-profit organization, Miss Canada International.
A prompt reply to my request is much appreciated as for the
deadline for my project is short. If you would like to take part
in this wonderful campaign and help bring a smile to a child’s
face from another part of the world, please
contact me.
Thank you. |
