Sicklerville, NJ, Resident Rhett Hackett Honored at 2013 Bear Affair Fundraiser

The Bear Affair is a fundraiser event, cocktail party and auction that raises money for the nonprofit Philadelphia Children’s Alliance (PCA) and the work they do for the city’s child sexual abuse victims.

At this year’s Bear Affair, we raised over $155,000, 422 people attended and we received over 400 teddy bears to give to children who visit the Children’s Alliance each year.

Rhett Hackett is an adult survivor of child sexual abuse and motivational speaker. He was honored for donating his time and efforts to PCA over the years.
