Despite my recent move to the Rio Grande Valley, I am still partnering with Mission Waco for their Christmas Drive in December 2023! Mission Waco was kind enough to allow me to store some of the stuffed animals in Waco, and I will deliver the rest of the donations in December. If you would like to donate stuffed animals or make a monetary donation so we can continue to supply the Mission Waco Toy Store, please email Claire [ claire@clairesbears.org ]

Thanks to your continued generosity, Claire's Bears was able to donate 500 stuffed animals to Mission Waco's annual Christmas Toy Store once again! These bears and others were free for all participants of the store. 

A free stuffed animal was made available to participants of Mission Waco's annual Toy Store as they finished shopping for their children's presents. With your help, we were able to donate 500 stuffed animals to the organization!

Our fist partnership with Mission Waco was for their students as the 2021 schoool year began. We donated backpacks, lunch boxes, and school supplies such as notebook paper, crayons and colored pencils. Because of the ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic, hand-sewn masks were also included in the backpacks.
