YORGI BEAR
Yorganop recruited Yorgi because so many children who come into care do so with few or no possessions, and especially toys, we decided to give a Yorgi Bear to each child on their very first day who is placed with Yorganop.
This we trust will play a small part in giving to the child something they can cherish and that is their very own. They can take it with them if they leave our care, and we hope it will take away some small part of the hurt and confusion which children can feel at this time.
If you would like you to purchase Yorgi please contact Yorganop Phone: 08 9321 9090, Fax: 08 9321 9019 or email: admin@yorganop.org.au to purchase any Yorganop products.
