In 2002, one of our board members, an avid collector of artist bears, felt it was time to donate part of their extensive collective to CRF in support of their mission. The Adopt A Bear program was created and installed on the web site as a means to raise awareness and to support the financial needs of CRF in meeting the goals of assisting families and children who are impacted by crisis.<\/p>\n
Every bear donated receives a certificate, and .80 of every dollar of the funds from these bears goes directly to the children.
\nThese bears are collectibles and\/or artist bears and are not meant as toys for children, because of the delicateness of some of their structure and the artist reputation for creating them.<\/p>\n
The process is simple:<\/strong><\/p>\n If you find the bear you like and want to adopt, please e mail with it\u2019s code, and we will send the final adoption bill, including a modest shipping, handling and insurance fee per bear. When you receive you adoption statement, please send a check or MO, or visit PayPal for direct payment, and we will ship your family member immediately priority mail.<\/p>\n These bears all range in size and adoptable prices. If you see a friend you like, email us for more info on size, maker etc. All come from a non smoking house and are brand new.<\/p>\n A few are Raike bears in their boxes and are MINT!~<\/p>\n Thank you!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\t\t
