Pawsitively Bears Day #1: The inception of Teddy Bears with Heart traces back to a personal challenge during my divorce. Faced with the dilemma of what to do with 450 bears stored in boxes that I had collected through the beanie bear craze, a conversation with a friend who happened to be a fire captain sparked the initiative. I didn't want to throw the bears away, he volunteered to take a few off of my hands. I then started thinking, who else could use bears so I started looking. I have always been one of those who "see a need, fill a need" kind of people. As TBWH grew we decided we wanted to be a non-profit. At the time it cost a lot so I did some online research and found Good Bears of the World. They have been in business since the 70s and did exactly what I wanted to do. I contacted them and they agreed to let us be a Den. Since 2008 we have given out over 200,000 stuffed animals and are gifting to first responders and other agencies in over six counties, not to mention throughout the U.S. and Internationally, when we can. The primary mission of Teddy Bears with Heart is to provide comfort to children in crisis, the forgotten elderly, and the terminally ill. Importantly, TBWH emphasizes our commitment to being a resource during times of genuine need, steering away from serving as mere Christmas gifts, prizes, or incentives. The focus remains on offering support and solace to those facing challenging circumstances. www.tbwh.org/donate #shareabearbecauseyoucare #pawsitivelybears #TeddyBearsWithHeart #NonProfit #Support #Comfort #Resource #FirstResponders #ChildrenInCrisis #Elderly #TerminallyIll

Tomorrow is Arizona Gives Day—a day when a little generosity can transform lives in big ways: https://lnkd.in/gnrzrR2T For women transitioning out of prison, the journey back into society is filled with challenges that can seem impossible. The simple act of walking into a convenience store can be overwhelming as they are faced with choices and stimuli that weren't part of their world for years. Your donations today support Televerde Foundation's transitional program that supports and guides these women through each daunting step of reentry. These funds help provide the essentials like housing, employment, and food assistance and the often-overlooked necessities such as clothing, toiletries, and transportation. Every dollar you give today eases the burden of reentry, offering hope and a tangible resource for women determined to rebuild their lives. Give a little to help a lot. Your donation today means everything to someone striving for a fresh start. Donate here: https://lnkd.in/gnrzrR2T #azgivesday Televerde #socialimpact #nonprofit

Exciting news in the philanthropy world! Renowned entrepreneur Dick Smith has made a generous commitment to donate his $300 energy rebate announced in the Federal Budget this week to the Salvation Army, urging fellow millionaires to follow suit. Dick Smith's message is clear and inspiring: "Not all of us need that money. There are millions of Australians that are doing OK. Donate the money to an important charity and that means the money won't be wasted." In a time where every little bit helps, this gesture of kindness demonstrates a powerful way to make a significant impact. This act of generosity can serve as a reminder of the impact we can have when we redirect resources to where they are most needed. So many Australian families, including kinship and foster care households face significant financial challenges daily. For carers, additional financial support really does go a long way, grants for the purchase of items for the children and young people in their care can mean the world, especially when the cost of living is so high. Through our fundraising at OzChild we can help with the costs of tutoring, counselling, car seats, and even prescription glasses for kids – practical items that make caring a little bit easier. But we can’t do that alone. No not-for-profit organisation can, we rely on the generosity of others to make it possible for us to help lighten the load for families. Let’s join forces to make a difference! I encourage everyone who can, to consider this impactful choice. Whether it’s a donation to the Salvation Army, OzChild or another charity close to your heart, let’s turn our rebates into a collective effort for good. #Philanthropy #SocialImpact #GivingBack #CommunitySupport
