The new face of UCP Day, “Show You Care, Hug a Bear” campaign is currently underway for 2011 and your company's participation is needed more than ever.  We recognize that without your support and dedication, we would fall short of our goal.  This year – in spite of the economic climate – we are raising the bar with an aim of reaching a $20,000 mark in sales.  These funds will be used – in part – to aid QuickRamps for Kids. We are especially pleased to announce that 25% (or $5.00) of the cost of each bear ($20.00) has been allotted to the QuickRamp for Kids program. 

   All that you have to do is sign up your company, select a date and identify a coordinator to take the lead role in collecting funds to purchase "Paws".

The QuickRamps for Kids program provides portable wheelchair ramps to families of children who experience Cerebral Palsy and other paralysis-causing conditions.  QuickRamps are a fast, and inexpensive alternative to permanent ramps.  Best of all, they give children immediate access to their community.
