| Bears for BooBoos, Inc. is an organization established by best friends Connor Fenton and Miriah Chapman. The girls collected teddy bears and donated the stuffed friends to a hospital to be given to children with an illness. It was the girls' hope that these bears would bring some kind of comfort to these kids. In 2002 the girls collected almost 300 bears and donated them to a children's hospital.
On August 3, 2003, Connor Fenton was killed in a tragic incident. Today, Miriah continues the Teddy Bear Drive in Memory of her best friend Connor. Miriah hopes to make something good out of something very tragic.
