September 9th is National Care Bears Share Your Care Day

As a Care Bears brand ambassador, in honor of Friday, September 9th being #ShareYourCare Day, A Geek Daddy is encouraging our blog readers and social media followers to do a nice deed for someone else just to be kind.  Simple things like treating a friend to lunch or helping an elderly neighbor with some chores may not seem like much to you but could have a big impact on the beneficiary of your kindness.  With Share Your Care Day as an inspiration, try and do something nice for others throughout the month of September then share your good deeds with the Care Bears on social media using the hashtag #CareALotChallenge to encourage others to follow your example.

The Care Bears want their fans everywhere to do something nice for someone all month long via #CareALotChallenge,  It could be simple acts such as sharing a toy with a sibling or taking out the trash for dad.  Bigger inspirations could also involve acts of philanthropy like planting a tree, serving lunch at a homeless shelter or running a 5K for a charity. Care Bears hope to embolden the nation to be kind, think of others and #ShareYourCare every day.

The Care Bears brand is all about pos­i­tiv­ity, car­ing and shar­ing.  Every day throughout September, one shar­ing or car­ing chal­lenge will be posted by Care Bears on their Facebook and Twitter pages with the #Care­ALotChal­lenge hash­tag. Chal­lenges include acts like shar­ing a high-five or a hug and much more. With the #Care­ALotChal­lenge, you can add a lit­tle extra happy to the world! It’s to show appre­ci­a­tion for the peo­ple you Care-a-Lot about! Print this calendar to track your #CareALotChallenge moments and watch online for ideas and ways to #ShareYourCare, including doing something special on Share Your Care Day!

You can also get in the spirit of the day by participating in the Care Bears #CareALotChallenge Twitter Party hosted by A Geek Daddy's friends the @BlogginMamas on September 8, 2016 to help kick off Share Your Care Day.  Dur­ing the Twit­ter Party there will be a chance to win one of the fol­low­ing prizes by answer­ing var­i­ous trivia ques­tions about the Care Bears.

September 9th is National Care Bears™ #ShareYourCare Day!

My wife grew up with a Care Bear as her favorite toy that she took everywhere with her which she named "Timmy" so it seems like fate that she married a guy whose family and friends use that as his nickname too.  With that association to the brand in mind, A Geek Daddy is especially proud to have been selected to serve as a Care Bears #ShareYourCare Ambassador by American Greetings.  I'm excited to announce that September 9, 2015 is National Care Bears #ShareYourCare Day!

What little ... or big  ... things  do you or your family do to help make a neighbor's day brighter, your community a bit nicer, or the world a better place? #ShareYourCare can be small, simple things like sharing a toy with your sibling, taking out the trash for your mom, or helping an older neighbor across the street. Or bigger things like planting a tree, or spending a day volunteering for a charity. Through this important movement, the Care Bears will inspire everyone to be kind, think of others and #ShareYourCare every day.

September 9th is National Care Bears #ShareYourCare Day!  We are asking that you join the Care Bears on that day in doing something nice for others.  With your help on that day, we can spread caring, sharing, love, friendship, acceptance, fun and happiness to those around us that day, and each and every day of the year! For example on September 9th, Care Bears is participating in an event helping 10-year old Zach Kaplan of #ZachKapCares and his mission to gift children in need with a soft bear to hug at night by donating 400 Care Bears plush to Leake & Watts, a  head start program serving New York City.

 #ShareYourCare can be small, simple things like sharing a toy with your sibling, taking out the trash for your mom, or helping an older neighbor across the street. Or bigger things like planting a tree, or spending a day volunteering for a charity. Through this important movement, the Care Bears will inspire everyone to be kind, think of others and #ShareYourCare every day.
