We are excited to introduce our newest and fluffiest member of the team – our SMA Aware-Bear! Our lovely bear would love to join you on your summer adventures, spreading joy and raising awareness for Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA). But before he sets off on his journey, he needs a name, and we need your help to find the perfect one!
Why Does Our Bear Need a Name?
Our SMA Aware-Bear is more than just a cute companion; he’s a symbol of our collective effort to raise awareness of SMA. By giving him a name, we make him a part of our community, a friendly face that represents our cause wherever he goes. Plus, a name will make it easier for everyone to share their adventures with him!
How You Can Help
- Vote for Your Favourite Name: We’ve narrowed it down to four fantastic names, but we need your help to make the final decision! It’s time to cast your vote here, and pick a favourite.
- Purchase Your Very Own Bear: Head over to our website store here, and purchase your own SMA Aware-Bear. Not only will you have your very own companion for your summer adventures, but you’ll also be supporting our cause and spreading awareness wherever you go.
- Take the Bear on Your Adventures: Once our bear has a name, we want you to take him with you on all your summer activities. Whether you’re going on a holiday, visiting the park, or just spending time at home, our bear would love to join you!
- Share Your Photos: Capture your bear’s adventures and share your photos with us. Post them on social media with the hashtag #SMAAwareBear or email them directly to us. Your photos will help spread awareness and show the world the diverse and vibrant life of our community.
What’s Next?
The winning name will be announced at the start of SMA Awareness Month, kicking off SMA Awareness month, and a summer full of fun!
Why This Matters
SMA Awareness Month is a crucial time for us to educate others about Spinal Muscular Atrophy and advocate for those affected by it. By taking our bear on your adventures and sharing your photos, you’re helping to shine a spotlight on SMA, fostering understanding, and building a supportive community.
