Operation Share Bear - Help Kids in NEED!!

Donation protected

Hello, My name is Christopher Montgomery Bender, in 2016 my little brother, Ryan Tylor Bender died suddenly. Ryan had been sick and disabled his entire life. BUT, every Christmas, he took our mother to a store, bought her a Stuffed Animal.

 

So, in his memory in 2016, my friends and I started a campaign called "OPERATION SHARE BEAR" where we asked our friends to each get a stuffed animal, take it to ANY child in need - donate it. So, far we have collected WORLD WIDE with very little social media more than 10,000 bears.

 

Sadly, in 2020, with COVID-19 no children could be helped. Well, we have a HUGE COMEBACK!!

 

In August 2021 a stuffed animal company called and offered us their ENTIRE INVENTORY at DISCOUNT as they filed bankruptcy! We can buy AT LEAST 500,000 bears to help children AROUND THE WORLD WHO NEED A SPECIAL FRIEND!

Past places we have been able to help include HOMELESS SHELTERS, CRIME SCENES with children in Trauma, Foster Homes "Welcome Kits", Cancer Wards, House Fires, Children's Hospice Centers and more.  When children are scared, a stuffed animal becomes their true protector.  And, we want them to have that Special Friend!!! 

 

 

 

We have donated bears around the world. Children are in need everywhere! We have donated bears on every Continent on earth except Antarctica. If we do buy this set of stuffed animals, more children than we ever dreamed will be helped. PLEASE HELP US!
