ENCOURAGE KIDS FOUNDATION

Hospital heppenings: encourage kids partnered with iconic toy brand, fao schwarz, to create a new, high-quality plush bear. We deliver these beautiful co-branded teddy bears nationwide to help pediatric patients navigate the stress of treatment, illness, and hospitalization. These bears are also a vital resource in supporting kids during painful procedures, long hours of waiting, and any time when they need a reassuring hug while away from the comforts of home. The bear is also a powerful tool in fostering coping skills, preparing for medical procedures, and educating pediatric patients about diagnoses.
