I love supporting businesses that make it a priority to give back to their communities. During the holiday season many of us turn our minds toward how we can help those around us in need. A new survey conducted by Build-A-Bear Workshop has found more than 60 percent of moms polled said when selecting holiday gifts they prefer products that benefit charities. Moms have spoken and Build-A-Bear has listened! Build-A-Bear Workshop has created several furry friends that give back to causes that support children’s health and wellness, education and literacy and domestic and wild animals.

Turner Owl is just one example of animals from Build-A-Bear Workshop that supports special causes through the Build-A-Bear Workshop Bear Hugs Foundation. when you purchase the new Turner Owl™, Build-A-Bear Workshop donates 50 cents to First Book to provide new books to children from low-income families and 50 cents to the Build-A-Bear Workshop Bear Hugs Foundation to support other literacy and education programs.

Champ is a beary special teddy! When you purchase Champ (you may dress Champ in a variety of styles) $1 from your purchase is donated to the Build-A-Bear Workshop Bear Hugs Foundation which makes grants to causes that support children’s health such as juvenile diabetes, autism, children’s cancer research or other important wellness causes for children.

For each Jack Russell Terrier or other kennel pal that is purchased Build-A-Bear donates $1 from the sale of this Bearemy’s Kennel Pals^® friend to the Build-A-Bear Workshop Bear Hugs Foundation to help real animals.

Build-A-Bear donation animals are just one way that Build-A-Bear gives back to the community. You can join in giving back by purchasing any of these and other Build-A-Bear donation animals from your local Build-A-Bear or from BuildABear.com. What a wonderful way to give back this holiday season!

Until Sunday, that’s right just one more day so you gotta jump on this one, all Build-A-Bear locations will be collecting toy donations for Toys for Tots! Hurry on over with your new, unwrapped toys and make a donation to help brighten a child’s Chrismas!

If you can’t make it by Sunday during the month of December you can a $1 donation (or more) to support Toys for Tots when you check out in the store or online. Last year, through the generosity of guests, Build-A-Bear raised nearly $400,000 for the Toys for Tots program!

Now for the Surprise!

Build-A-Bear Workshop is generously offering one of my readers a $25 Gift Certificate to Build-A-Bear!
