Volunteer Voices...
"Being a volunteer for Ted E. Bear Hollow is extremely gratifying, because we help children handle the
death of a loved one and create special friendships through this grief. Children need someone to talk
to about the loss of their loved ones, and I am happy to help them through that process. Volunteering
with Ted E. Bear Hollow is a rewarding experience, because not only do you help grieving families... you
also learn a lot about yourself."
-Meghan Matthews, volunteer, 3rd grade teacher with Westside Schools
"This past year has been a wonderful opportunity for me to work with Ted E. Bear Hollow. I had
the pleasure of working with a great group of volunteers and facilitators. Meeting a variety of
families who benefited from TBH was so very rewarding! I want to thank Mary Ann and Sarah for having
faith in me and my ability to help. TBH deserves to be noticed and supported, and I hope to continue
in this effort even after my graduation this May."
-Sandy Ciriaco, former TBH Intern
"These kids are incredible, and it is amazing to watch as a facilitator how much they can overcome. Also,
you feel good that just maybe you had a little bit to do with making that child feel more comfortable.
You form bonds and create memories that will last you for the rest of your life."
-Adam Linck, TBH Faciliator, Creighton University Medical Student
