“Bear hugs” is a project of organization Children of the Earth, of which president dr. Nina Meyerhof, we cooperate. Purpose of project is to give teddy bears to children, who are orphans, because of war, nature disaster or other reason. To orhpaned children, who have had traumatic experience, teddy bear means a lot. By donating teddy bear to child, we allow him to at least shortly feel happines or satisfaction. We give him something, that he can touch, hold and hug, when he is scared, unsure or alone. It gives him feeling of warmth and it awakens hope.
