Hey guys Moritz Chevrolet is hosting a Teddy Bear drive for Cook Children's Prayer Bear Ministry and we have raised $8,900.00 which will be used to make a massive purchase of Teddy Bears Monday afternoon!!! That will buy 2,500-3,000 quality Teddy Bears that will go with the 1000-1500 that we already have!!!! We are accepting Bears for another week and there's several ways to help, you can bring your Bears to Moritz Chevrolet or make a check payable to Moritz Chevrolet or make a donation on my PayPal account and we will add your donation to our order... I believe the reason we've had so much success this year is due to the fact that the Bear Den (basement) at Cooks flooded several weeks ago and they lost most of their Bears which are 90% collected by donations so this is a very worthwhile opportunity to pitch in and help out. Cook's gives away 15,000-17,000 Bears a year as each child that's admitted receives one as long as they are available. Thank you for your consideration in this awesome effort we are hoping to completely refill their stock and I know we can!!! This is an annual event that we participate in with our partnership with the Cara Young Fish for Life Tournaments which in the last 9 years has raised $154,000.00 for Cook Children's it's amazing what a bunch of fishing guys can do when there's a need and they need help right now!!! Bear Donations or checks can be brought or mailed to: Moritz Chevrolet Attention Monte Coon 9101 Camp Bowie West Ft Worth Texas 76116 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PayPal www.paypal.me/MONTECOON78--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Or order your own Bears this is a great site we are getting Bears that retail for $13-14 for $4.25-$3.60 each!!! https://www.joissu.com/15-Plush-Teddy-Bears/productinfo/35-299/#.XY_5mkZKiUl---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Monte, PayPal is telling me that’s not a valid address. Can you double check?

We ended up being able to buy $24,500.00 worth of Teddy Bears for the Cook Children's Prayer Bear Ministry which we will be able to deliver next Wednesday Oct 9th that will be right at 14,000 Teddy Bears!!!! It was a bit of a miracle in that once we reached $11,000.00 and made our first huge order a donor stepped in and matched our donations to bring us to $22,000.00 plus he paid for the shipping at $1,105.00 that order ended up being 11,848 Bears!!! This is such a huge blessing for Cook's and more than we ever imagined would be possible!!! Thank you to everybody who pitched in for this awesome effort!!!
