The link for saying you will attend, not attend, etc is at the following link. However, you may still attend. This is just a reminder system. If you would also send out event invitations to your friends, it would be very helpful. We need to get to 600 friends before the Fundraiser. We made a huge headway with over 200 in our first week, but now things are slowing down and we NEED everyone help to make this a success.

Online fundraiser party weekend, Saturday, June 11 at 9:00amSun Bears are our Forgotten Bear Species. A lot of people do not know they even exist. They meet with some of the same fates as the Moon Bears. They are poached for their gall bladders and feet. They are also, poached because they are the smallest of the bears and they go into homes as pets, where they usually end up in tiny cages after the baby cuteness is gone. Sun Bears are arboreal and with the demise of much of the rain forest, they are losing their habitat.
Let's STOP the Sun Bear From Becoming the Forgotten Species!Let's help save them on June 11-12
