Yakima Fire Department
Fire departments have always taken in stuffed animals and teddy bears for kids who lose everything. A house fire is unexpected and no one can imagine the loss of a house fire unless they've had their own. Losing all of your personal belongings or worse a family member can bring the weight of the world crashing down on you. Oddly enough a teddy bear goes a long way, especially to a child who lost so much.
