Kapolei High School will host a teddy bear drive from 8 a.m. to noon Saturday in front of the flagpole, where new and gently used stuffed animals of all kinds are welcome.

Costumed characters, such as Kung Fu Panda‘s Shifu and Tigress, will make a guest appearance at the collection drive and will be happy to pose for photos, if you donate a stuffed animal.

The school is working with Hawaii Children’s Trust Fund and its One Strong Ohana program to provide happiness and comfort to abused children in Hawaii this holiday season.

The high school’s goal is to collect 3,000 stuffed animals for the cause.
