An organization I belong to raffles a BAB every year, and we make a very tidy profit, for the little work that's done (roughly $500 after expenses).

Then we found out that, if you contact BAB beforehand, and tell them that you're doing it for a charity, what the charity is, etc, you get the bear for free. I think you still have to buy the clothes, though, but I'm not sure. I've won the bear twice, but the second time, I gave it to a child who was there.

The last time I was on their website (quite a while ago), they said that they make greek letter t-shirts & polos by request. I do know that they have some fun ecards, if you want to send one to a child.

I have the Bearamy that I won, and a midnight blue ice skating bear that I was given. The midnight blue bear is beautiful!
