Teddies For Tragedies Organization:

Quoted from Knitting For Charity Org:
"Teddies for Tragedies" started in 1985 when a group of volunteer knitters sent a batch of teddy bears to some orphaned, Sudanese refugees, who also had TB. Since then Teddies for Tragedies has supplied teddy bears to stressed-out children the world over. You can use any pattern for TT, but they recommend using bright colors, and varying them.
