Once the stuffed animals are collected and refurbished, they will be brought to The Oncenter on December 22 and handed out to children and families in need. It's anticipated anywhere from 2,500 to 3,200 families will benefit from The Oncenter event.
"We're excited to partner with the Syracuse Crunch for the annual Tired Teddy Toss," said Stanley Steemer President Jeff Trisciani.

Fans can also bring new and gently used stuffed animals to the Crunch office now through Friday, December 12.
