PACKAGING & MAILING TEDDIES
Please find a cardboard box that is light in weight.
Depending on the amount of teddies you have to mail,
consider the size of the box.  Line the box with a
large garbage bag and place the teddies inside.
You can "squish" the teddies a little, we will fluff
them up when we unpack them. Inside the box
please put a note with your name or the group's
name and address, a telephone number and an
e-mail, if available.  We will send a note once the
teddies are received. Tape the bag shut and close
the top of the box. 
Then put the information for mail TO (Gwen Smith)
and SENT BY: your name and address.
CONTENTS:
please make sure that you write the
following on the outside of the package:: 
hand knitted teddy bears-gift for charity-no value.

All packages are inspected at the Border and Canada Customs
will put a price on the contents for duty and taxes.
Our Organization does not have any cash, all our work is
done by volunteers.  Therefore, we cannot pay any duties
on these shipments and they will be returned to the sender.
We love to receive any and all teddies, and applaud all the
wonderful volunteers who knit them and the above will make
sure we get them and will be able to pass them on to the
ones who need them most:  the children.
 

If you have any questions, please e-mail Gisele

Thank you for all your generous help.
