Our inspiration for SBPY is a young boy with a big heart and the determination and perseverance to create his miracle. Everyday we find small and sometimes significant challenges in our lives. We can either be powerless or powerful in our approach to these events and circumstances.

Kermode Bears face a huge challenge, they are on the verge of becoming extinct. When he was 13 years old, Simon Jackson set out to save the Spirit Bears. 

Today, he is the founder of the world’s largest youth-led environmental organization, the Spirit Bear Youth Coalition.  The SBYC has protected two thirds of the Spirit Bears’ habitat, but one major watershed still remains threatened.

Please visit his website to join us in donating to the preservation of this beautiful animal.
