Instructions

Make lots of them! And when you send them to the coordinator send the 'bear's fare' to Africa too. It costs a lot to go there. The kids will love you for it.
Also use size 6 needles (instead of size 7) to shrink the bear to 10" or less for easier packaging and sending on their long voyage.

I have only sent 20 or so but, the faces of the kids there have warmed my heart so that there will be more to follow. Who would not want to give something to children that have lost their parents and have no one to love? Americans have always come thru for others in need and children with no one to love are the most needy of all. Come on knitters let's get started!!!
