Yes! We send out confirmations for all form submissions.

No, the PayPal information is all we need, but be sure to double check the address as that is where we will send the bear. If the address information is incorrect, you will experience a delay in receiving your bear or you may not receive your bear at all.

No, you have various payment options to choose from once you click the PayPal button.

If you donated to help cover the cost of your bear, you receive priority status - that means we ship your bear within 1-2 business days of receiving your order. This includes: Bear w/a Buddy, Bear w/a Bracelet, Bear for Someone Else, International Bears, 2 Bears, etc.

Please allow up to 2 months. Most people who request a bear will get it within 3-4 weeks. We cannot guarantee you will get your bear by a certain date. We ship bears every Wednesday.

As soon as possible. For a box of bears, we ask you to give us at least one full month.

No. Project BEAR only offers a 9" brown bear. Each bear comes with a tag on which you can write your baby's name.

If you requested a free bear, request another one and explain in the comments that you typed the wrong address in the previous form. If the PayPal address is incorrect, message/email us ASAP to let us know. If we have already shipped a bear to the wrong address, we will require a $3 fee for the extra shipping costs. You can also message us on Facebook to let us know, even if you have emailed and/or used another form.

Please visit our Support page for the various ways you can help support Project BEAR.

We send bears all over the world; however, shipping outside of the United States is expensive, and we require at least a $15(USD) shipping/customs fee. Requests for free bears outside the United States will not be honored.

Please be aware that international shipping may take longer than a month. International shipping has been inconsistent due to COVID - for this reason, we strongly suggest NOT ordering from Project BEAR if you do not live in the USA.

We recommend giving them our info so they can request a bear themselves. If you would still like to have a bear sent to them, click here. Be sure the address is correct. We require at least a $3 donation to ship a bear to someone else - this helps pay for the shipping costs.
