Every Brave Heart Deserves a Hug

When a child is diagnosed with a congenital heart defect, life changes in an instant. Families are thrown into hospital rooms, surgeries, and long nights filled with uncertainty. In those moments, comfort and hope can feel hard to come by—but that’s where the Bear Program steps in.

Each handmade bear is crafted with care from 97% organic merino wool, carrying a little heart of courage. These bears travel from our hands to the arms of children in hospitals or at home, offering warmth, comfort, and a reminder: they are not alone in their fight.

For many families, the bear is more than a stuffed animal—it’s a source of strength during the most challenging days of their lives. From tiny infants recovering from open-heart surgery to older children facing ongoing care, these bears provide a hug, a friend, and a symbol of hope.

With your support, we can deliver bears to hundreds of children nationwide, from the hospital bedside to home recovery. Every bear sent represents a child comforted, a family supported, and a brave heart lifted.

Join us today. Give a bear. Give a hug. Give hope.
