Amy Berman: The Gift of Unconditional Love

Summary Nearly two decades ago, Amy Berman read an article that changed her life. A story about child abuse and HIV in Africa prompted her to start the Mother Bear Project. Today she has distributed nearly 200,000 handmade bears to kids in emerging nations affected by HIV/AIDS. Guest Amy Berman Highlights Amy grew up wanting to write children’s books and she went to journalism school before she was inspired to go another direction. An article about child abuse and the ravages of HIV/AIDS in Africa prompted Amy to find some way to help. Amy’s non-profit, the Mother Bear Project, has distributed nearly 200,000 handmade bears to kids in developing countries impacted by HIV/AIDS. A core principle of Amy’s effort is that the distribution of bears is unconditional, she wants the children to simply feel they are loved.
