DONATION REQUEST INFORMATION
Thank you for thinking of The Vermont Teddy Bear Company® or its sister companies: The PajamaGram Co and Calyx & Corolla as a worthy champion of your cause. Every Bear Crew member cares deeply about the community and supports our mission to “Make the world a better place, one Bear at a time.”
Please take a moment to review the guidelines to the program.
We try to give out as many products as possible to non-profit organizations. Please understand that even following our donation guidelines to the letter does not guarantee you will receive a bear. All donation requests are processed at the end of each month. Unfortunately, we are not able to contact every organization about donation declines due to the hundreds of requests we get each month.

1.All donation requests must be received at LEAST ONE MONTH prior to the requested ship/pick up date. There are no exceptions.
