WBF Newsletter Summer 2020

Welcome to Issue 18 of Bears Matter! We are delighted to bring you news of our distribution of funds during the first half of 2020 and the amazing projects around the world we continue to support. Of course, we couldn’t do any of it without you and we are so grateful for your ongoing support of and commitment to the Winton Bear Foundation. Since we were created in 2010 we have donated £24, 264 to 41 beneficiary organisations and helped bears in 19 countries. Cambodia, Canada, China, Ecuador, India, Indonesia, Japan, Laos, Malaysia, Mongolia, Myanmar, Pakistan, Peru, Romania, Russia, Ukraine, United Kingdom, United States, Vietnam. This year we have added a new beneficiary, as well helping seven previous ones.

We’ve all been a bit like bears, hibernating through this time of uncertainty. Lockdown has had an effect on projects far and wide, and we want to continue to support the work they do through this difficult time. So, without further ado, we would like to tell you more about what we have been doing, with your help, so far in 2020. Enjoy!

A Tribute to Charlie Russell

Charlie Russell “walked” among bears for 70 years of his life, and understood them well. Sadly he passed away in 2018 and I never had the honour of meeting him. He had previously been scheduled to speak at an Advancing Bear Care conference in 2011 and we were all so looking forward to meeting him but his ultra light crashed before he made it to Banff and he missed the conference.
