Hotels raise over $3200 to fund bears for kids!

Springfield hotels joined together to raise funds to purchase stuffed animals for kids treated at St. John’s Children’s Hospital! Stuffed animals are used for comfort items, to provide a “friend” for our pediatric patients, to show kids steps of a procedure on the stuffed animals like IVs and casts and even allow kids also get to do the procedures on the stuffed animals to help give them back control! Over $3200 was raised for the kids! Thank you to the following hotels for being a part of the Bear Drive!

Crowne Plaza Hotel, Wyndham Springfield City Centre, Springfield Ramada, Wingate by Wyndham, Residence Inn, State House Inn, Northfield Inn and Suites, Comfort Suites, Candlewood Suites, Holiday Inn Express, Springhill Suites and Hampton Inn and Suites.
