Receiving the Hugs From Hunter Scholarship in honor of my dear friend Hunter has inspired me to carry on his legacy of bringing joy to others. Now as a second grade teacher, I strive to foster comfort and opportunity in my students daily. I am forever grateful for the Biermeier Family and the Foundation.

My son was in the hospital in December for RSV. His Hugs from Hunter bear was an immediate hit and it has been his favorite bear since. Thank you for bringing comfort to kids, and their families, while in the hospital. ❤️
