The GBW Booster Club is comprised of "non-human" members of Good Bears of the World and includes teddy bears, pets, many different plush animals and even a pair of work boots! The Booster Club was formed in the late '90's as a memorial tribute to Wisconsin Teddy Bear artist, Barbara Troxel. The founding member is Glory, a teddy bear purchased by GBW Toledo Ohio Den's Mike Cousino from Barb. Boosters create fundraising projects in which all members can participate; the motto of the Club is: "We put the FUN in fundraising."
Booster fundraising projects have included:
Since their beginning Boosters have gifted teddy bears to children in the USA, China, Peru, Russia, England and Japan.
