More Chances to 'Show You Care' Toronto- CASs Continue Campaign By Placing
More Stuffed Toys at Yonge-Dundas Square

TORONTO, Oct 5 /CNW/ - Toronto's four Children's Aid Societies (CAS)  will be locating another round of plush stuffed toys at Yonge-Dundas Square in downtown Toronto as part of their continuing Show You Care, Toronto campaign.

WHEN:	Wednesday, October 6 at 10: 00 a.m.
WHERE:	Yonge-Dundas Square                       South-East corner of Yonge and Dundas Streets, Toronto

This comes after many of the 200 plush stuffed bears, puppies and cats that Toronto CASs situated last week went missing.  They were located from Bloor to Front Streets and Jarvis to Peter Streets on light posts, benches, newspaper stands, information areas and other highly visible public vicinities.

Toronto CASs appeal to the public to return the plush toys to one of their four offices -   Children's Aid Society of Toronto, Catholic Children's Aid Society of Toronto, Jewish Family and Child Services and Native Child and Family Service of Toronto.  For any remaining plush toys, Toronto's CASs ask to please leave them for others to find.

BACKGROUND: The Show You Care, Toronto campaign, launched by Toronto's four Children's Aid Societies, marks the start of Child Abuse Prevention Month in October. The campaign aims to raise public awareness about how to report child abuse to local Children's Aid Societies. The campaign will run from September 30^th to October 8^th.
