The BEAR Warehouse is the central location where emergency essentials and supplies are stored to distribute to abused and neglected children in care of Child Protective Services, CPS. We provide emergency items like car seats, cribs and clothing. Our lease is ending at the end of June in our current space so we are moving. We need help packing the emergency essentials for vulnerable children so when the movers arrive the inventory will be accurately counted, boxed and labeled. This help will enable us to use donated funds to serve more children rather than paying the moving service.
