CHAMPAIGN -- Some kindergarteners put on a circus for a cause Thursday. These little clowns and lions are raising money to help polar bears.

They walked the halls of St. Matthew School collecting loose change from students. The kids also got a lesson on environmental issues. This is the second year the children are supporting Polar Bears International.
