My Story

As many of you know, my love for polar bears cannot be measured. They are such majestic animals.

Humphrey, who was a Toronto Zoo resident, now in Quebec City, was a bear that captured my heart the summer of my maternity leave.  I spent many hours, with Jonathan in a stroller, admiring him playing in the habitat at the Toronto Zoo. 

We are raising funds to help support the improvements to their current habitat at the Toronto Zoo and to help with conservation efforts.  

Thanks for your support!



Description

With a fundraising goal of $35,000, every dollar raised will directly support your Toronto Zoo’s Polar Bear Life Support System (LSS) Project. This project involves modifications to the existing pool for our four polar bears, including new housing for advanced mechanical and filtration systems to allow for a saltwater system and adapting the current Tundra Trek pathway. These bears are used to saltwater and by upgrading our polar bear habitat, we will improve the experience and overall, well being for the bears currently living at the Toronto Zoo.
