Follow on Google News | Harris Jewelry™ announces Operation:Teddy Bear® 2015 charity campaign goalsBy: Harris Jewelry Harris Jewelry™ launched Operation:Teddy Bear® in 2012. Through year-end 2014, the initiative has generated over $300,000 in donations for Operation Troop Aid®. OTA uses the donations – along with those from its other sponsors - to send care packages to deployed service members, as well as to sponsor various military assistance programs and events. Operation:Teddy Bear® is supported by the sale of uniformed teddy bears, representing all branches of the military, at Harris Jewelry™ stores nationwide. The profits from every bear sold are donated to OTA. Harris maintains a long-standing pledge to give back to the military community. They identified OTA as a non-profit organization whose mission and values best matched theirs. Operation Troop Aid® is a non-profit 501 (c)(3) corporation whose mission is to provide care packages to U.S. Service Members. Mark Woods, a 21-year Navy veteran, founded OTA 10 years ago. To date, deployed troops in all branches of service have received care packages valued at over $5million from Operation Troop Aid®. U.S. Marine and WWII Veteran, Jerome L. Harris, founded Harris Jewelry™ almost 60 years ago. Today the chain offers special financing for jewelry and watch purchases to Active Duty, Retired Military and Government Employees. Harris Jewelry™ operates 22 stores nationwide and will open three new locations in 2015.
