Our largest annual fundraiser, the Bear Affair gets its name from our mission to provide every child who walks through our doors a brand-new stuffed animal to provide a little comfort during a stressful time.
Guests are also invited to bring a new stuffed animal to the event to be given to a child at PCA. For more information about PCA, including the ways in which the Bear Affair lets us connect with our larger community of friends and partners, please visit https://www.philachildrensalliance.org/.

Our Children. Our City. Our Mission.
At the Philadelphia Children's Alliance, we serve over 2000 children and their families each year, at no cost, who have been affected by sexual abuse. In addition to our core work of putting children on a path to healing and justice, we have also built programs for child victims of human trafficking, child witnesses to violence, caregiver support, court support, and more, all designed to help us better serve each child's needs. We are the only facility of its kind in Philadelphia, and we work in collaboration with our partners in law enforcement, social services, and medical and mental health services.
