Because of your support at our Texas events, the Teddy Bear Crawl Foundation was able to deliver 180 teddy bears to the Dell Children's Medical Center

Every donation, every registration, and every person who showed up helped bring comfort to children and families during difficult moments.

Thank you for helping us make a real impact in our community. This is why we do it!

The manitou incline, climb for hope is coming up soon and we can not wait to have you join us.

Last year Jeffrey Chokran approached our founder Mark Haverland about doing the manitou incline together before the Colorado event for the 2026 season.

Little at that time did we know the manitou incline climb that was planned to be done between two friends would turn into part of the climb for hope mission that would start a week later because of a phone call between our founder, Dealers of Hope USA and Dealers of Hope Foundation founders Joey McGlamory and Erika Bogan

To see this climb come together and to already see the impact that our fundraising is making by helping a child go to school is nothing short of spectacular.

Thank you to everybody that is participating. Your participation means the world to us and even more the world to those that are being impacted by our mission.

Looking forward to seeing you all soon!

May 29 we will be taking on the manitou incline in Colorado.

We are going to shuttle groups of 9 individuals from Safeway (roughly 13 minutes) from the incline that way we do not contest parking at the incline.

First shuttle will leave at 0530 and our first group will start the climb at 0600.

We need people to register ahead of time so we can plan the logistics accordingly, so please register ahead of time.

We are also asking for a minimum donation of $50 please to help cover the cost of the shuttle van as well as to help with our climb for hope mission.

Let's turn the incline orange with the tbcf!

This right here is exactly why we are climbing a mountain, we are going beyond providing comfort to children. We are now providing hope in many ways!

WE DID IT.

Queen’s education fund is officially FULLY FUNDED. I honestly don’t even know how to put into words what this feels like.

Just days ago, we shared Queen’s story and the dream of helping a 16-year-old girl return to school after being out of education for the last 7 years because of her disability and wheelchair needs.

Today, because of this incredible community, that dream is becoming reality.

Queen will now be able to begin her new semester with:
• tuition support
• transportation
• uniforms and supplies
• and the opportunity to continue building a future she deserves

From the bottom of my heart, thank you to every single person who donated, shared, prayed, encouraged, and believed in this journey.

A special thank you to:
• Teddy Bear Crawl Foundation
• Dealers of Hope USA
• Kimberly Smith Skriba
• Jennifer L Griffith
• and our two anonymous donors

Your kindness has done so much more than raise money. You reminded a young girl that she is seen. That she matters. That her future matters.

This is what hope in action looks like. This is what community looks like. And this is exactly why Dealers of Hope Foundation Tanzania exists. Together, we are changing lives. And Queen’s next chapter begins now.

🐻 Bear Hold Challenge 🐻

This is your May challenge inside The Bear Den — and it’s just the beginning.

Every month, we’ll be dropping a new workout or challenge for the Den subscribers. Simple. Effective. Consistent.

Here’s how this one works:

👉 Start May 1st with a 1-minute Bear Hold
👉 Add 10 seconds every day
👉 Finish the month at 6 minutes total

Break it up if you need to—just get it done.

This one’s about consistency, not perfection.

Tag us so we can follow along 👇


Let’s see who’s still holding at the end of the month 🐾

And if you're not part of the Bear Den yet, check our website https://www.teddybearcrawl.org/bear-den
