Discover how Bears for Humanity brought Waverly to life as a memorable plush mascot for employees, clients and corporate events.
🌊 Bringing People and Brands Together
Capital Group, a global investment management company, values meaningful connections across its business.
Waverly, a cheerful blue wave character, became a custom plush created by Bears for Humanity for employee engagement, client and promotional campaigns, and corporate events. With its playful smile and signature yellow TIDE surfboard, Waverly offers a friendly and memorable way to bring a character into the physical world.
🏄 The Opportunity: Beyond Ordinary Corporate Gifts
Traditional branded merchandise often focuses on a logo. A well-designed character can create a more personal experience.
Waverly was developed for multiple applications: celebrating employees, supporting client and promotional campaigns, and adding personality to corporate events. The goal was a distinctive keepsake that made the character recognizable and enjoyable in plush form.
✨ The Solution: A Character Brought to Life
Bears for Humanity translated the original concept into a dimensional plush, preserving its signature blue wave shape, expressive embroidered face, rounded arms and feet, and yellow TIDE surfboard. Careful attention to proportions and stitching gives Waverly a recognizable identity and an inviting, premium appearance.
