In memory of those who lost their
lives in the national catastrophe that
took place on September 11, 2001
We mourn for them and express our
deepest sympathy to their families.
God bless America
Collectors note
America the bear was introduced on 22nd March 2002 to raise money for the American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund. In total, the bear raised more than $2 million.
There were three versions of the bear released: a red version, a blue version and a white version.
Some of the white bears had a mistake on the ears, with the blue ear with the white stars being on the left hand side instead of the right.
