Milwaukee Radio Alliance to Wrap Up “Teddy Bear Posse” Campaign

Milwaukee, WI – Milwaukee Radio Alliance radio stations B93.3 (WLDB-FM), FM 102/1 (WLUM-FM), and Milwaukee’s True Channel 100.3 FM and 1290 AM (WZTI-AM) will formally wrap up their “Teddy Bear Posse” campaign on Monday, November 21, 2016 at 11:00 a.m. with a press conference at Wilde Subaru, located at 1710 Highway 164 South in Waukesha.

For the past two and a half months, the Milwaukee Radio Alliance radio stations have invited listeners to donate new teddy bears and stuffed animals at over thirty sponsor locations throughout Southeast . The collected teddy bears will be distributed to area law enforcement agencies and fire departments for use when first responders encounter frightened children involved in traumatic situations.

“The Milwaukee Radio Alliance is very proud to support our brave first responders throughout Southeast Wisconsin with the Teddy Bear Posse campaign and while we don’t yet have a final count on the number of teddy bears collected, we do know it is well into the thousands at this point, and our hope is to provide comfort to as many affected children as possible,” said Steve Kosbau, Milwaukee Radio Alliance General Manager.

The Waukesha Police Department and the Waukesha Fire Department will be present at the press conference representing first responders throughout Southeast Wisconsin. Following the press conference, the collected teddy bears will be distributed to any interested police agency or fire department in the five-county metropolitan Milwaukee area, while supplies last.
