Gerinet Healthcare provides end-of-life-care to terminally ill patients in your neighborhood. We have volunteers who create special bears for the families on our service. We are looking for volunteers who like to sew and who are willing to dedicate a few hours a month to make these bears.
Patterns and stuffing are provided to you as well as the material. These wonderful bears are made at your home when you have time.
