Important Updates:
Project B.E.A.R. currently has a VERY LIMITED stock of: Baby Loss Bears.
 An order has been placed, and it is on its way! The new bears can be expected to arrive to us sometime this Fall. 

For Individual Requests: Until our new stock arrives, Project B.E.A.R. can only fulfill Baby Loss Bear requests that have been donated/paid for. We are very sorry for this inconvenience. 
We will resume sending Free Baby Loss Bears once our new stock arrives. 
 If you already requested a Free Baby Loss Bear and would like to ensure you receive your bear before we run out of stock, please consider donating to expedite your request. 

For Hospital Requests: At this time, we can only fulfill "NICU Bear Only" requests. Any requests made for "Mix of Babyloss and NICU Bears" or "Babyloss Bears Only" will put your organization on our waiting list. 
Hospital requests will have priority status once our bears are back in stock. 

Due to the shortage, wait times for bears are subject to change: 
Free Baby Loss Bear Requests: 4-8 Months
Expedited and Paid Requests: 2-4 Weeks (as our stock allows)

Donate to Project B.E.A.R.

Project B.E.A.R. was founded in memory of Jeremiah Joseph Spering, who was stillborn at 37 weeks on April 17, 2008 & Vincent Joseph Spering who was born June 2, 2009 and passed away June 15, 2009.

We draw strength from our son’s namesake verse Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” The knowledge that we will one day hold our children again fills us with hope.

We in turn endeavor to provide some comfort to those who suffer a similar loss and let them know they are not alone.

Project B.E.A.R. sends teddy bears to hospitals as well as to individuals who request them, free of cost. Our bears provide tangible comfort & support to families navigating the challenging path of loss. We also send bears to families with a baby in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit & to those struggling with infertility. Anyone suffering the pain of a child's absence is welcome to a bear. If you would like to support Project B.E.A.R. to help us continue to provide free bears, simply click the Donate to Project B.E.A.R. button to the left.

​We believe that every child is a precious blessing, no matter how short their time with us and whether or not we got to hold them in our arms or just in our hearts.

Our Mission

To help, comfort & support grieving families that have lost a baby due to miscarriage, stillbirth, neonatal death or termination, or those who have a baby currently in the NICU, by giving them a teddy bear to honor their precious child.
To bring awareness to the reality of miscarriage, stillbirth, neonatal death, infertility and premature birth.
To honor and remember babies who are lost to us.
To comfort those struggling with infertility
To cultivate a community of caring & understanding.

Your Support Matters

Bringing awareness to the reality of infertility, miscarriage, stillbirth, and neonatal death.

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” ~Jer 29:11
