It’s Easy
We provide everything you need in this kit.
We always need volunteers to make our hand sewn teddy bears. Instructions and necessary materials are provided in a kit that makes five adorable love-filled teddy bears. Once made the bears can be returned and given to children in crisis.
Occasionally, volunteers want to keep the bears ... they ARE hard to part with. On those occasions, we ask for a $25 donation to cover the costs of materials and kit preparation.
Special arrangements for individuals, classes, or organizations who commit to making bears for Bears By Your Side in quantity.
