The Okay Cares vision is to spread a message of hope in support of meaningful causes, one project at a time, and to inspire others.
THE PARK Okay Bears is a culture shift. An extraordinary brand built by ordinary people.
In a polar world of winners and losers, heroes and villains, artists and builders, the middle ground has been left barren. That very ground lays the foundation of The Park, where it is okay to be okay.
An immaculate collection of 10,000 diverse bears that grant you exclusive access to The Park, where together, we build a virtuous community that will transcend the internet into the real world.
Through meaningful member-only merch drops, outdoor campaigns, exclusive live events and collaborations with indie businesses and world-renowned brands, we create a community-centric, globally recognised brand that is a force for good.
Together, we are Okay.

Who Created Okay Bears? The Team Behind
Staying true to the Web3 paradigm, the founders of Okay Bears are anonymous. According to the official website, the team consists of 12 people.
Kais and Suby are the project’s co-founders. They also have digital artists, illustrators, concept artists, full-stack developers, motion designers, game developers, a writer, and a software engineer working on Okay Bears.
While having an anonymous team was considered very risky a while back, NFT communities have learned to embrace that, and most of the popular projects had unknown founders. For example, BAYC’s team was completely anonymous well after the collection exploded in popularity and before they eventually got doxxed. Azuki’s team remains almost entirely anonymous as well.
