September 08, 2007 - Dallas, TX – More than 140 sick and infirmed children received their own personal teddy bear at the Children’s Medical Center in Dallas, Credit Solutions announced today. In honor of National Teddy Bear Day, Credit Solutions’ employees donated the teddy bears to “bring a smile to a child.” The donations provided the children a positive, personal and unique keepsake to brighten their day, to comfort them and to take home when they leave the hospital.
Credit Solutions’ employees distributed the bears to the children at Children’s Medical Center in Dallas, Texas, the premier pediatric healthcare provider in the Dallas area and one of the largest in the nation. It is the only academic healthcare facility in North Texas dedicated exclusively to the comprehensive care of children.
“It just makes it easier for the children if they have a new friend after surgery,” said Danette Tidwell, administrative assistant at Children’s Medical Center. “It comforts the children,” she said.
In exchange for the donations, Credit Solutions offered employees the opportunity to wear jeans and to show fan support by wearing their favorite team jersey on September 6. This builds employees’ morale by giving to the children and by building team unity.
“There is no better reason to give than for a child and our employees are proud to provide a memento to comfort these children at such a trying time in their lives,” said Della Price, Credit Solutions’ community events manager. “We’re a company built on building people’s future. These children are our future and this is a wonderful way to show them how much we care about them and what they are going through,” she said.
