About The
Bear that Cares
Meet Junior!
Every day a child is killed in the hood. A teddy bear is placed on telephone poles to show love for the lost lives of those children. When it rains, it's really the tears shed for the lost lives of our children. As the tears fall on the the teddy bear placed on the tree, they suddenly give the teddy bear life. Knowing his purpose, he made it his mission to save lives. So the bear that cares jumps down from the the pole. He meets with the neighborhood grandmother and promises to do everything he can to not end up back on that pole. Junior (the bear) travels the hood in an attempt to stop people from selling drugs, get out of gangs, and motivate people to stop the hood from killing ourselves. Join the Bear That Cares on his mission to save lives!
