Teddy Bear Retailer Gives Back On Patriot Day
800Bear.com Offers Special Patriot Bears in Support of the Folds of Honor Foundation
BURR RIDGE, IL, USA, September 11, 2013 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The anniversary of the September 11th attacks on the World Trade Center, now commonly known as Patriot Day, is a time when Americans can thank the men and women who so selflessly serve our nation in order to protect every citizen’s basic rights and freedoms. Online retailer 800Bear.com is excited to announce that they are doing something special in honor of Patriot Day.Not only has the personalized teddy bear site rolled out a brand-new line of Patriot Bears, but for each bear bought on September 11th, they will donate a portion of their proceeds to the Folds of Honor Foundation. The mission of Folds of Honor is to “ensure no family is left behind in the fight to preserve American freedom.” The foundation does this through providing scholarships and other forms of financial assistance to the spouses and children of families with soldiers who were killed or disabled while serving our country. Through their work, the organization hopes to “provide healing, hope and the opportunity for dreams to be realized.”
When 800Bear.com heard about the work done by Folds of Honor, they immediately thought it lined up with their mission: “to help our customers bring smiles to the faces of their family and friends.” The website’s aim is always to help others feel better and smile more through the sale of their teddy bears, and they wanted to do something special for Patriot Day in order to give back. They have teamed up with the Folds of Honor Foundation in order to help improve the lives of veterans’ families. A portion of all proceeds from the site’s sales on September 11th will go directly to Folds of Honor.
800Bear.com also rolled out an exclusive new line of Patriot Bears in honor of the holiday. Each teddy bear will come with an American flag and patriotic t-shirt design on the bear. From the Home of the Free Teddy Bear to the Military Pride Teddy Bear, each bear is meant to pay tribute to a friend or family member who is currently serving our country or has served in the U.S. military. Other designs include the American Flag Teddy Bear and Firecracker Teddy Bear, which aren’t military-focused but are great for showing patriotism and pride in being an American.
The online retailer is sincerely hoping that their new line of Patriot Bears will help them give back to the families of our nation’s veterans, and they also hope that online shoppers will want to get on board to help support the Folds of Honor Foundation.
