State Farm's Monette Vinson, Good Neigh Bear and Rob Braun present teddy bears to a family receiving treatment at Children's Medical Center.
It’s been a week since Lake Highlands resident and State Farm insurance agent Rob Braun delivered teddy bears to kids at Children’s Medical Center, but still he’s basking in the glow of that uniquely rewarding experience. Agents and staff from several Dallas offices presented 700 stuffed bears to the ARCH (At Risk Children) Center at Children’s and greeted families along with State Farm’s Good Neigh Bear. The smiling facing of children facing treatment were their golden reward.
