Strength, Dedication and Courage

Two special edition bears were shown to Boyds' dealers in January and sold out in just 10 days. The "Our American Hero...Strength, Dedication and Courage" Bears are done in both Bearstone and in Crumpleton. $450,000 from the sale of these two special Limited Editions, created as a tribute to the rescue workers, is being given to the 9-11 Disaster Relief Fund. An additional $150,000 was raised from the Sale of Teddy B. Bear on October 13. The special event mohair bear was sold out in one day and Boyds donated $1.00 for every Teddy B. Bear sold. Both of these bears are now available in stores.
