What's with the bear?
You may have seen the bear at an event or in an advertisement, so what does it mean? Each bear, complete with a Personal Counseling Service t-shirt, is given away for a generous donation of $40. This $40 pays for one hour of therapy for a child. You can give the bear to a friend, a child you know, or donate it back to PCS for therapists to give to their young clients. |
