Here's How You Can Help
You can buy a bear online, and we'll work with the New Jersey State PBA to get it in the hands of a child who needs comfort.
Last year you helped us collect over 1,000 teddy bears. These bears were given to the New Jersey State Policeman's Benevolent Association who distributed them to local police departments. They put the bears in their cars to be given to children in crisis situations.
We call them "Feel Better Bears" — because the police make children feel better during emergencies with a brand-new bear to hug.

Option 1
BUY A BEAR ONLINE:
Choose a bear and purchase it through our online store. We'll take care of the rest, including getting it shipped right to the New Jersey State PBA. (Note: Bears are sold at cost—New Jersey 101.5 does not profit from the sale of bears.)
Option 2
DROP OFF A BEAR IN PERSON:
Bring a new, unwrapped bear and drop it off at any “Feel Better Bear” collection location until 12/24/23. View drop-off locations here.
Option 3
BUY A BEAR AND MAIL IT:
Mail a new, unwrapped bear to this address: NJSPBA, 158 Main Street, Woodbridge, NJ 07095-2108, ATTN: Feel Better Bears.
