  JoeJoe Bear Foundation
This is a charity started by The Joe Joe Bear Foundation was created in memory of Joseph David Ordaz who passed away on March 10, 2009 from Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia. They collect new teddy bears for children with cancer and other life threatening illnesses and then deliver them to local hospitals. These bears are for the children to hold when they are scared and lonely since their families may not be able to be with them 24/7.

All of our bears need to be new due to the fact that these children may have weakened or no immune systems as a result of the treatment or from their illness itself.

 

  Bubba's Bears
This is a charity started by Kathleen Evertsen, in memory of her son Alexander, who died on March 16, 2006 of Tetralogy of Fallot with Pulmonary Atresia.  Alex was only 6 1/2 weeks old.  Their mission is to provide teddy bears (through donations) to every child undergoing heart surgery; and/or, to the parents or siblings of the child as comfort.

To let children know a Bear is There when times are tough. Constable Teddy - (aka Bears On Board)

"The Constable Teddy Program's goal is to have a bear (and/or children's books) in the back of every Constable's patrol car. These bears will be offered to children during situations of domestic violence, car accidents and other similar situations. For a child, these bears will hopefully give them something to hold onto in those times of emotional crisis."

This program is based in Louisiana and run by Pamela Speight. To read more about this charity and to see if you wish to help, click the icon above.
