Cleftline™ Bears
Our Cleftline™ bears bring comfort to children with cleft lip and palate and help them cope with questions and anxiety they experience from having facial differences. Each bear is custom-made with stitches across its upper lip and a tag attached to the ear with our toll-free number where families can call for information about cleft lip and palate.
