How we chose the charities Bipolar Bear supports

Posted by Kathleen Hanover in Uncategorized on 02 3rd, 2010 | no responses

When you buy the Bipolar Bear app, 30% of net proceeds will be donated to one of the following non-profit organizations, based on votes from our monthly poll:

While there are countless organizations working in the mental health field, we chose to support these organizations because they are national in scope, provide services and/or research that directly impacts large numbers of people, and are reputable.

Most have earned positive reviews on CharityNavigator.org, an independent site that reviews and rates non-profit organizations (Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance and TGen Foundation have not yet been ranked by CharityNavigator.org).

Is there another charity we should add to the list? Send us suggestions via our Contact Form.

Every App Purchase Supports Mental Health Charities

For every Bipolar Bear App purchased, we donate 30% of net proceeds to a mental health support and research charity. Each month's donation will be sent to one of the following non-profit organizations, as determined by your votes.

We will start distributing donations after we've sold the first 1,000 apps, then we'll cut a check once a month after that. Go to the iTunes App Store to buy the Bipolar Bear App.
