Bears for Humanity is an organization that is committed to helping children and the chronically unemployed in our community. They make organic plush toys that are safe for children and our environment.
They use the buy one, give one concept to make sure all kids feel safe, loved and comfortable. Bears for Humanity builds their Teddy Bears and Animal Friends right here in the USA, Union City, California, they also employ their workers through California’s welfare-to-work program. The basis behind their company is to build a strong community by creating quality jobs for Americans.
The Buy one, give one concept has become very popular among many companies in the last few years, it is very refreshing to see so many organizations so willing to give back. Bears for Humanity partners with many reputable charities, and each year thousands of children in foster care or with severe illnesses benefit from their kindness.
Another great reason Bears for Humanity is so awesome and unique is that all their products are safe and organic. They are made with 100% Certified Organic Cotton and their supply chain meets the highest level of fair employment and organic standards. These facts cannot be said for all toy and plush companies.
Bears for Humanity recently released a new line of their products called The Friends for Humanity Collection. This collection includes 14 cute and loveable creatures. Bears for Humanity sent me the turtle from this new collection. As soon as I opened up our package I knew this turtle would be a well-loved plush toy for my kids.
My kids had a lot of fun filling out their Animal Identification Card and giving our new turtle a name. They choose Harry the Turtle, seemed like a fitting name. As they were having fun with their new toy, I kept thinking of all the kids in need who would also be receiving a new toy, and the joy on their faces as they came up with a name for their new loved friend.
I am so thankful for organizations that are continuing to give back to their communities, if these ideas and concepts don’t make you want to give back, then I don’t know what would. The next time you need a gift for a new baby or a young child’s birthday party consider Bears for Humanity. They have a wonderful selection of teddy bears and their friends on their website for you to choose from.
