Build-A-Bear Workshop®, a long-time First Book supporter, is excited to announce the launch of the 2010 Huggable Heroes® program.
This initiative highlights dedicated, hard-working young people ages seven to 18, who are a part of incredible efforts to make the world a better place. Now through February 26, Build-A-Bear Workshop is accepting entries for its seventh annual Huggable Heroes® program.
Ten Huggable Heroes from the United States and Canada will be selected and each will be awarded with a $7,500 educational scholarship and $2,500 in the form of a donation to the 501 (c)(3) charity of his/her choice, as well as a celebration trip to St. Louis in July. Entry forms are available at all Build-A-Bear Workshop stores in the United States, Puerto Rico and Canada, and online entries are being accepted at buildabear.com/huggableheroes.
