Great News! IBBR was accepted into the $50,000 bracket for the Pepsi Giveaway under the Planet category. PLEASE help us win this grant. We need this so much for the bears and your vote can make it happen. You can vote every day during November! Keep this e-mail in your in box as a reminder to vote. Forward this e-mail to all your friends, family, co-workers. If you belong to any groups, tell them. If they don't have e-mail, please call them & ask them to tell their friends and family. Anyone at least 13 years old can vote. Everyone, please vote each day! The bears desperately need your help.

This grant is not for operating expenses so we continue to raise funds for the rehab program. However, we need to enlarge the main enclosure & build an education building. Both are critical to continue our efforts to save more bears in need and to educate future generations about the importance of stewardship for wildlife. As I send this I can see all the bears in my mind that IBBR saved and released, and behind them other cubs who will one day need help. We want to be there for them.
