They had over 70 bears jump with minimal marketing and exposure. In their first year of operation they partnered up with Skydive Midwest and the Ann & Robert H. The hospital will then deliver the bears and their cards to the kids in a manner that they see fit.Ĭanopies for Kids is presently located in Chicago, Illinois. The reason for this is because some of the children these bears are intended for may have compromised immune systems therefore it’s important that they remain as sanitary as possible. Throughout the entire process the bears need to remain in their plastic bag flight suits. Recently they also added a Sponsor a Bear program in which individuals who don’t want to jump themselves can purchase a kit and donate the bear to go skydiving with another skydiver who is selected by the drop zone.Īfter the bears have jumped they then make their journey to the local Children’s Hospital that the DZ is partnered with.

Their hope is that these special bears will help provide kids with the hope, support, and courage they need in their fight ahead and in their journey towards living a happy and healthy life. Their organization uses this experience to position those bears as "The Bravest Stuffed Teddy Bears in the World" which are then given to sick children in hospitals. Matt and Taryn launched Canopies for Kids in the Spring of 2012 with the mission of providing skydivers with the opportunity to take stuffed teddy bears along for their skydive. All they had to do was incorporate a few teddy bears. It was an opportunity to combine the sport they love with a cause that they were both passionate about. However in the eyes of Canopies for Kids founders Matt Kuikman and Taryn McKay it was so much more than that. Put simply, skydiving is the act of jumping out of a perfectly good airplane and performing aerial maneuvers in free fall before landing by parachute. ![]()
