I wanted to ensure you saw my story that Liz shared below. My journey has been one of unimaginable hardships. Despite the ban on private bear ownership in Romania since 2005, a legal loophole keeps me trapped in deplorable conditions. But my friends at World Animal Protection refuse to give up. Which is why they need your support today. If you give before midnight tomorrow, your gift will be matched dollar-for dollar as part of their Match Challenge. Please donate now, before time runs out. Thank you, Baloo the Bear

Double Your Support for Baloo’s Freedom Before It’s Too Late

Match My Gift

Imagine spending 23 years confined to a small, decaying enclosure, lonely, mistreated – a life without freedom. This is the heartbreaking reality for Baloo, a 23-year-old bear trapped at a ski resort in Romania. His story has captured the attention of compassionate people, like you, around the world and now we need your help to change his life for the better. When you make your gift before midnight, March 31, your generosity will go twice as far to help fight for the freedom of animals like Baloo. Don’t wait any longer. The deadline to have your impact DOUBLED is only days away! Baloo’s journey has been one of unimaginable hardships. From the time he was a small cub, he has known nothing but suffering, surviving merely on cornflakes and lemonade, enduring taunts from visitors, and even being given alcohol. This is not the life a majestic bear deserves.

Don’t wait to double your impact for animals like Baloo. Donate today and your gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $40,000! Match My Gift Despite the ban on private bear ownership in Romania since 2005, a legal loophole keeps Baloo trapped. However, we refuse to give up. And your support is instrumental to unlocking Baloo’s freedom. The Romanian government supports our position that Baloo’s conditions are deplorable, and they are committed to his freedom. We’ve taken a crucial step forward by involving the Romanian authorities, now we must seek legal counsel to ensure Baloo’s case has a strong legal foundation. That’s why I am asking you to please take advantage of the final days of our $40,000 Matching Gift Challenge so we can continue working towards Baloo’s freedom. Baloo’s story speaks to the urgent need for critical legislative change and the closing of legal loopholes perpetuating cycles of abuse and exploitation. Our $40,000 Matching Gift Challenge is still active. Please don’t pass up this opportunity to make your gift go twice as far for animals. Donate today! Thank you for being a voice for the voiceless. With Gratitude, Liz Quick-Corral Director of Development World Animal Protection US
