Building Bridges of Hope with Teddy bears
Bears not Bombs; Fighting Bullies with one bear at a time

My mother. Marvell D. Tanner Ginsburg, z”l, had wished to live in Israel but it never came to be. She dreamed of becoming a teacher of young children and setting them on their path with good Jewish values. Her life ended but her work doesn’t have to. I am bringing her pictures and story, along with the donated teddy bears from children, with strong Zionist roots, to Israel in October 2014. There these toys and her story will be set up in corners of the places where I donate the teddy bears. We will create the Teaching teddybear corners in 9 places throughout Israel. In this way, a remembrance of some of her accomplishments that she did in her life will remain and her story retold. If there are any questions or wish to donate to our charity, please contact Rabbi Claire Ginsburg Goldstein at www.bearsfrombergenfield.com.
