Bears Care: Back to Football - Back to School

Bears Care, the charitable beneficiary of the Chicago Bears, is committed to improving educational opportunities for children in the Chicagoland area. To celebrate the start of both the back-to-school and football seasons, we're asking fans to join with us to support classroom needs at six select Chicago Public Schools highlighted below. Each of these schools will be welcoming new students this fall, and Bears Care wants to lend a hand to help teachers equip their classes with the tools needed for a successful and enriching academic year

Please click on your favorite school to see what projects need your support, or select the school that your favorite Bears player is cheering for. When making your donation, be sure to enter the code GOBEARS when prompted and Bears Care will match your donation $1:$1 up to $30,000!

You can learn more about Bears Care here. To learn more about how DonorsChoose.org has been supporting classrooms in need since 2000, click on the “About” tab above.
