Check out how Twitter united to help Mara find her stolen Mama bear back that contained an emotional note from her mother.
Twitter at times can surprise us with how good its reach is. There is a not that people use Twitter for. People posts funny tweets, as well as complaints on things that are happening. What made it even more special is that recently a woman got her stolen Mama bear back after it was stolen with the help of Twitter.
A few days back Mara Soriano's backpack was stolen from Canada. The backpack contained the special bear that was a gift to her with her mother's voice note. Her mother passed away due to cancer last year. One of the Twitter users decided to help her and posted a tweet making an appeal to get her bear back. Netizens joined in wholeheartedly and shared the tweet. Hollywood actor Ryan Reynolds also joined in the deed to help the girl get her bear back. He offered USD 5000 to anyone who would return the bear.

It was in a herschel back pack when stolen along with an iPad.
Mara, the owner says it has her mom’s voice inside saying, ‘I love you I’m proud of you, I’ll always be with you. Her mom died last year pic.twitter.com/ipfrzqKXsf
Vancouver: $5,000 to anyone who returns this bear to Mara. Zero questions asked. I think we all need this bear to come home. https://t.co/L4teoxoY50

I think this is definitely going to be the best news I hear today. It was a lift and a perfect one at that. I'm in the US and there is not a lot of good news being shared #FOUNDMARASBEAR

Meanwhile in the United States, armed forces are literally kidnapping people and throwing them into unmarked vehicles. Can't we all just be more like Canada? #BeLikeCanada #FoundMarasBear https://t.co/11N9KAGP4h

When I saw @VancityReynolds' call for the return of @drawmaradraw's stolen teddy bear (which contained her late mom’s recorded voice), the story broke my heart. ICYMI: "MAMABEAR IS HOME!!!" 🧸❤️️#FOUNDMARASBEAR #ALLTHEFEELS #NOTCRYINGCUTTINGONIONS 🧅 https://t.co/F93zaTsG9A pic.twitter.com/gv5ABTQDad
