Teddy Bear Donations
In February and April 2007, several hundred teddy bears were donated
to law enforcement by several local Tennessee chapters of Phi Theta
Kappa sorority. These Teddy Bears were donated to assist in helping
comfort children affected by the illegal production and abuse of
Methamphetamine. Officers representing the East, Middle, and West
Meth Task Forces took the bears back to their departments to give to
children in their areas.

The Meth Task
Forces wish to express gratitude and praise to the Phi Theta Kappa
members for their efforts and concern for children who have been
affected by Methamphetamine.
