A few months ago, I was diagnosed with scoliosis and was told I need to wear a scoliosis brace for 18 hours a day. When I found out this news I was upset, scared and embarrassed. My mom heard about a non-profit organization called Higgy Bears that donates teddy bears to kids and teens with scoliosis. The day I was measured for my brace I came home to find a little teddy bear sitting on my bed with its own mini scoliosis brace. Having this bear that I now call Dolly brought me comfort especially in the very beginning when I wasn't quite ready to tell any of my friends. Higgy Bears does more than just donate teddy bears. Higgy Bears organizes support groups and also holds a yearly convention called Higgy Con where hundreds of kids and teens can come together to share stories and encourage one another. I am participating in a fundraiser for Higgy Bears and would really appreciate your help and support.
Help Donate 5,000 Higgy Bears to 5,000 Kids & Teens With Scoliosis In 2025!

Hi Everyone!
Thank you again so much for all of your help. I went through and adjusted everyone's sales for the wrapping paper fundraiser and combined them with this fundraiser. The Higgy Holiday Fundraiser will end 12/1, and will only continue through this website through the month of November. (The wrapping paper portion has ended.)
Here is the leaderboard so far along with the prize levels that each kiddo has reached. Please let me know if your total doesn't look right so I can adjust it if needed.
This is our month! We have raised $11,171 so far! $50,000 total is what is needed to cover the cost of 5,000 Higgy Bears next year. Share, share, share!!!
