Nominate

Send a Teddy Hug.
Share a Story.

Some people need more than words.
Some moments call for comfort you can hold.

Through this initiative, we invite our community to help us send a Teddy Hug to someone walking through illness, recovery, loss, or a difficult season — whether a child, a parent, a friend, or anyone who could use a gentle reminder that they are not alone.

This is not just about a blanket or a bear.
It is about connection, compassion, and showing up for one another in small but meaningful ways.

If someone comes to mind, share their story below.

Nominate Someone Special

We believe stories matter.
With each nomination, you help build a circle of care — a growing collection of moments where people chose to lift someone else.

Tell us about someone who could use a Teddy Hug.
Write a few words about who they are, what they are facing, and why you felt called to share their story.

Selected nominations will receive a Lil Teddy gift sent with love from our community.

A Gentle Note

Each submission is reviewed with care and respect. Information shared through this form is used to evaluate nominations and coordinate gifts.

While we cannot fulfill every request, we are committed to extending as many Teddy Hugs as possible.

A Living Wall of Stories

This space will grow into a gentle collection of shared moments — stories of strength, hope, love, and support. Some nominations may be featured (with permission) as part of this living wall, allowing others to read, reflect, and feel connected to the people behind each Teddy Hug.

Together, these stories become reminders that kindness travels.

Privacy & Story Sharing Consent

By submitting this nomination, you confirm that you have permission from the individual or their family to share the information provided for the purpose of reviewing this request and coordinating a Lil Teddy gift.

As part of this initiative, Lil Teddy may feature selected stories within our community storytelling space or story wall. Any shared content will be thoughtfully presented and will not include private contact details, full addresses, phone numbers, or other sensitive personal information.

Stories may be shared in an edited format, and names may be abbreviated or omitted to protect privacy.

By submitting this form, you consent to Lil Teddy using the story details you provide in this manner.
