By Donating A Vehicle To Our Center, You Can Participate in the Teddy Bear Cops Program!

Nearly half of American children experienced at least one or more serious traumatic childhood experiences, according to a survey conducted by the National Survey of Children's Health (NSCH). With so many studies linking childhood trauma to violence, depression, suicide, alcohol, and drug abuse, it is very important that we try to protect the well-being of our children. If you wish to recycle your car and make a difference in the life of a child, please consider participating in the Teddy Bear Cops Program.

What is the Teddy Bear Cops Program?

Operating in conjunction with our car recycling program, the Teddy Bear Cops Program helps children who are in need of comforting after experiencing a traumatic event. As adults, it is easy to forget how even the smallest things, such as a teddy bear, can elicit a smile from a child. But we have found that when placed in the hands of a child, teddy bears can have a soothing and calming effect.

We use proceeds from the car submissions we receive to purchase thousands of teddy bears for fire, police, and other emergency officials so that they can be given to children in need of comforting. Started in 1997 with 100 boxes of teddy bears, our program has been met with an overwhelming positive response from several city police and fire chief officials who were able to comfort small children at various disaster scenes.
