Compassion can make a lasting impact — sometimes starting with something as simple as a teddy bear.

In SideBarMedia's conversation with Susie Hanson, founder and CEO of Teddy Bears with Heart, Den of Good Bears of the World, she shares how the organization has donated more than 350,000 stuffed animals to first responders, hospitals, and agencies to comfort children and individuals during difficult times.

We appreciate conversations that highlight practical ways organizations are supporting their communities and making a difference.
