We are celebrating 15 years of Bears in the Air this year! Our team is thrilled to continue the tradition of giving back to make a difference in the lives of children and Veterans in our community.Join us for a special evening in the terminal for our annual kick-off party on Friday, December 4 from 6PM - 9PM. The kick-off party helps us raise funds to purchase brand new teddy bears for children in area hospitals. These bears bring comfort and joy during a difficult time. Funds raised also support our community's most vulnerable Veterans who have served our country and are now in need of our support. Along with the bears, funds raised provide financial assistance to the Robert L. Miller Sr. Veteran's Center.
In the program's first 14 years, over 25,000 teddy bears have been delivered to children in area hospitals and $116,600 has been provided in financial assistance to the Robert L. Miller Sr. Veteran's Center. The more donations collected, the more smiles we can create for both children and Veterans alike.
Admission to the cocktail-style party is $40 per person at the door, or tables of 10 seats may be reserved in advance for $500. Tables are based on availability and must be reserved by November 25. To reserve a table, contact Julie Curtis at [email protected] or (574) 800-3230.
The event is open to the public for adults 21+. There will be small bites, cocktails, music, and fabulous door prizes to enjoy.
If you cannot make it to the kick-off party but are able to contribute, donations can be made until December 13 at https://givegrove.com/bearsintheair2026/.
Join us for a wonderful time at SBN while making a positive difference in the lives of children and honoring our courageous Veterans! Parking in the long-term parking lot will be validated.
