Build-A-Bear Workshop was founded 15 years ago on a simple but powerful idea: to create a company
with heart. The company has shared the hug of a teddy bear whenever needed in local communities and
abroad. With the help of its Guests and associates, the company has donated more than $30 million to
causes such as children’s health and wellness, literacy and education, animals, disaster relief, and the
environment.
