River Cats, K-LOVE, and Raley's bring Holiday cheer with bear drive

Proceeds support Raley's Food for Families, donated bears benefit children in need

December 9, 2016

WEST SACRAMENTO, CA - The Sacramento River Cats are excited to partner with Raley's and K-LOVE for a Holiday "Buster Cozy" teddy bear drive on Sunday, December 18th. The three organizations are coming together to benefit families and children in need this Holiday season.

Customers visiting Raley's Loomis on Sunday, December 18th between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. will have the opportunity to purchase a "Buster Cozy" teddy bear at time of check out. All proceeds from these bears will benefit Raley's Food for Families, an organization that helps provide meals to families. While this program is important year-round, Food for Families is especially impactful during the holiday months and every bit of support goes a long way.

After purchasing a "Buster Cozy", customers will then have the option to donate their merry teddy bear to the River Cats and K-LOVE. In turn, the bears will be gifted to the Child Abuse Prevention Center and from there, the bears will make their way to children as cuddly holiday gifts. In addition, all those that donate their bears to the River Cats and K-LOVE will receive two tickets to a 2017 River Cats game.

Santa Claus and Dinger will also be joining the drive on the 18th, further spreading holiday cheer to fans and customers.

The "Buster Cozy" holiday teddy bears are available at Raley's locations across Northern California. The River Cats and K-LOVE will join Santa Claus and Dinger at Raley's Loomis for this very merry bear drive on Sunday, December 18th from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
