WHAT WE ARE DOING
For our project we made bears out of old shopping bags that were just sitting in our basement and made them into stuffed animals. After we finished making 11 stuffed animal bears we sold them for $10 each. In the end we made $110 . We decided to give the money to a charity.
OUR BEARS
HOW THIS ALL HAPPENED
To find our idea we began thinking about all of the different things we can remake out of different items that we already had. We went to Pintrest and searched for things to remake. We found a bunch of different teddy bears made out of different items. First we were going to use old pairs of jeans to make the stuffed animals. We tried to find old jeans from friends or in our own closets but we didn’t find anything. During one class we had nothing to do so we tried to make a bear out of a Lulu Lemon bag. The fabric was hard to sew and the bear didn’t turn out well so we decided to make them out of softer bags.

SELLING BEARS
We decided to sell our bears for $10 each. We chose $10 because we feel that it was a reasonable price because of how hard we worked. We had an idea to donate our money to a charity.
DONATING
We decided to donate all the money we made to a charity that we really wanted to help. From both of our love for animals (mostly dogs) we decided to choose the Humane Society. When we first looked up there website, we wanted to donate the money as well as a few items off their wish list. We found that it would be difficult to get things that they needed so we just decided to give the money. We raised a total of $110 that we donated to the Michigan Humane Society on June 5th, 2013. When we donated the money, we felt very happy that we could help animals in need. The money we donated is going to supplies that the offices needed for their rescue animals. This includes food, treats, toys, and other important things needed to help an animal find a loving new home.

WHAT WE SAY ABOUT DONATING
W H A T J O R D Y N S A Y S
I think donating is a great way to help anything that is in need of help. The reward doesn’t have to be a present, how you feel is the real reward.
W H A T L A U R E N S A Y S
I think that it is a really good idea because we are not only helping the animals, we are helping the people who work there keep there job by keeping the shelter open.
SPECIAL THANKS
We would specially like to thank some people.
First off we would like to thank all the people who bought our bears that we made. We would like to thank Jordyn’s mom for taking us to the Humane Society office. And lastly, we would like to thank Sarah for all of her help donating!
