Care Bears Share Your Care Day

Care Bears, created by American Greetings, were introduced in the early 1980s on greetings cards, on an animated television show, and as stuffed animals. Over the years, the bears have inspired children to share their feelings and care for others. Care Bears Share Your Care Day is dedicated to love, caring, and sharing with others. It inspires people towards philanthropy, giving, volunteering, kindness, and acts of goodwill. On the occasion of the inaugural celebration, in 2015, Care Bears—along with 10-year-old philanthropist Zach Kaplan, with support of Leake & Watts—donated 400 Care Bears plush toys to children in New York City. They also teamed up with almost 300 bloggers who were known as Care Bears #ShareYourCare Ambassadors, who had taken an oath "to spread the news, pay it forward and keep the conversation going to their respective vast audiences." Coincidentally, the holiday happens to take place on the same day as National Teddy Bear Day.
