How can you help sun bears?

How can you help sun bear and Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre?

 Like all conservation program in the world, the amount of conservation works we can do to help saving species is depend on the amount of funding we can generate. Our efforts to help save sun bears in Malaysia are not exception.

First, we need to raise sufficient funds so that we could set up the centre, run the conservation programs, take care of the rescued bears, etc. We need funding to do them all. The most direct way for you to help our efforts is donating fund or help us raise fund. They can make the donation online at:

http://www.leapspiral.org/content/support_leap.php

 or write to Wong at wongsiew@hotmail.com.

We also have a facebook cause setup where people can join our cause and make donation at http://www.causes.com/causes/95651.

 Unlike tiger, panda, rhinos where every known about, sun bear is the least known bears in the world and one of the neglected large mammals in Southeast Asia. The lack of knowledge about the species and their plights among the public is a big obstacle for the conservation efforts to save sun bears. Everyone can help us to raise awareness of the sun bears simply by spreading the words about our cause and the sun bears. Internet has become an important tool to communicate with friends across the world.

 Joining our facebook cause (http://www.causes.com/causes/95651) and repost our blogs (http://sunbears.wildlifedirect.org/), could help us get the message out for sure.

The last thing about how other people can help us is what I always telling people on how they can help us: “do what you do best to help us!” If you are a writer, you can help us write about sun bears and our work; If you are a film maker, help us produce a film about the sun bears; if you are a scholar, help us conduct studies on sun bears, etc. In short, do what you do best!
