DENVER – Sometimes heroes come in soft, fluffy packages.
On Saturday, mascots from Kroenke Sports and Entertainment banded together to help with Rocky Mountain Hospital for Children’s Teddy Bear Drive. Rocky from Denver Nuggets, Bernie the St. Bernard from the Avalanche and the Mammoth’s Wooly were all in attendance to greet families and help the initiative in its third year.
Last year, Rocky Mountain Hospital for Children (RMHC) received 4,000 Teddy Bear donations and organizers believe this year’s event will exceed those totals. The hospital firmly believes that giving stuffed animals to children in need is a significant benefit in their road to recovery.
