On the 30th of May it is my 40th Birthday and I'd love to mark the occasion by doing something to help the animals that I've dedicated much of my life to protect. I'd appreciate any donations large or small.

Right now is a critical time for Animals Asia as we embark on building the last bear sanctuary in Vietnam and bring an end to Bear Bile farming in Vietnam forever.

In 2017 Animals Asia signed an agreement with the Vietnamese Government which was the result of decades of work on the ground in Vietnam, with Animals Asia's proven track record of success and constructive collaboration seeing them named as the Government's official partner to end bear bile farming.

We need your support right now to ensure enough funds can be raised for the sanctuary to be built swiftly so that Animals Asia can start rescuing bears from bile farms as soon as possible. These bears have spent many years of their lives suffering immense cruelty having bile drained from their gall bladder, a practice which is completely unnecessary. Let's help give them a place to live out their remaining years in the safety and comfort of Animals Asia's sanctuary.

Please donate what you can to help make this dream a reality - and be a part of history as we make sure that no bear is left behind.
