Christmas has passed, and the bears are in hibernation, but the spirit of the season is still in full swing with the Martha’s Vineyard Teddy Bear Suite Fundraiser. We’re keeping the online donation page open until the end of the year, and we have raised nearly $29,000 for the Martha’s Vineyard Boys & Girls Cub’s Healthy H...

The bears may have gone into hibernation until next year’s Martha’s Vineyard Teddy Bear Suite Fundraiser, but the work to end childhood hunger on Martha’s Vineyard is still happening daily. And our annual holiday fundraiser is helping make a difference. The Martha’s Vineyard Boys & Girls Club serves over 100 elementary school ...

The ever-popular island radio station, MVY Radio, dropped in on the Martha’s Vineyard Teddy Bear Suite for a special visit.
