AUPAIRCARE – THE LEADER IN LIVE-IN AU PAIR CHILDCARE, PARTNERS WITH BUILD-A-BEAR WORKSHOP® TOHELP LOCAL CHARITIES
Ronald McDonald House in New Brunswick, NJ to receive 25 teddy bears from AuPairCare’s Share-A-Bear party
Bridgewater, NJ – February 11, 2010 – AuPairCare, www.aupaircare.com, a leading au pair placement agency, is teaming up with Build-A-Bear Workshop stores nationwide for their second annual Share-A-Bear campaign which invites au pairs to give back to their local communities by making a bear to be donated to a local children’s charity.
Last year, AuPairCare held over 100 events nationwide donating 1800 furry friends to over 100 local charities. Heidi Woehl, VP of AuPairCare, says “AuPairCare is present in many of same areas as Build-A-Bear Workshop stores and their motto that “a bear hug is understood in any language” is very much in-line with the role an au pair can play in the life of a child and host family. We are very excited about our continued partnership and the opportunity for our au pairs who make a difference in the lives of the children they care for, to extend the spirit of international friendship through these bears to other children in their area.”
Princeton Area au pairs will hold their party on February 11, 2010 7:00 p.m. at Bridgewater Commons Build-A-Bear Workshop. Led by AuPairCare Area Directors, Kathleen Climpson and Susan Bellew, over 20 au pairs from 6 different countries will stuff and name teddy bears while also creating individual cards wishing the recipient of their bear good wishes in their own language. These special international bears will then be donated to the children of Ronald McDonald House in New Brunswick, NJ..
