Teddy bear supplies down

Nov 1, 2025 | 9:00 AM

Chinook Regional Hospital is in need of more teddy bears.

The hospital’s pediatric and emergency departments has run out of stuffed animals, provided annually by toy-drives like the Lethbridge Hurricane’s Teddy Bear Toss and the Southern Alberta Bikers’ Teddy bear Ride.

Alberta Health Services Volunteer Resources is now accepting donations of new stuffed toys to ensure children will receive new toys that will be available to bring comfort to children that need it most.

A bin has been set up at the hospital atrium for donation drop offs from now until Nov. 16, 2025.
