Bears in the City, an Orlando-based social and entertainment company, is expanding its charitable reach.
They officially launched We Bears Care, a 501(c)3 organization, April 13.
“Bears in the City has done a decent amount of fundraising in the four years we’ve been a company and now we’re diving into more social activities so I thought this was the perfect way to blend everything together and have a way to be able to give back to the community that would also allow us to work with companies to have a bigger impact,” says Bears in the City founder Pat O’Rourke. ” This way we can get donations and monetary support to be able to put on bigger events that will in turn allow us to raise more money to give back.”
He says right now their events mostly benefit The GLBT Center of Central Florida and the Orlando chapter of Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, but they’re open to any and all organizations that support the local LGBT community.
For more information, visit We Bears Care on Facebook. O’Rourke says WeBearsCare.org will be launching soon.
