Polar Bear Challenge

$35,000 Challenge Grant to Save Polar Bears

2009 Challenge was met, 2010 Challenge has begun!

Right here at the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden, a team of researchers led by CREW Director, Dr. Terri Roth, are racing against the clock to save the polar bear. Leading a team of 16 zoos across the continental United States, CREW researchers are saving polar bears with science. Through extensive hormone research, they hope to create a successful captive breeding program while extending their research to bears in the wild.

Double your impact today! We have received a $35,000 Challenge Grant to fund this research from the Shumaker Family Foundation of Lawrence, KS. Are you up for the challenge? Give a gift of $50 or more to the Polar Bear Challenge and help us make history. All we need are 700 passionate people to join the challenge, won't YOU join today?

The Challenge is on!

Thanks to your generous support and the Shumaker Family Foundation, we raised over $70,000 to support polar bear conservation research in 2009!! Join us as we kick off our 2010 Challenge!
