 HELLO!
This past weekend found me at the Global Issues Network Indonesia (GINdo) where I presented a workshop on an upcoming event:
Rockin’ 4 the Environment- SUN BEAR ROCK!- an arts and cultural festival to raise awareness and inspire action for conservation in SE Asia.
In the past we have been very successful with Turtle Rock! (for endangered sea turtles), Tiger Rock!, Orang Utan Rock! and Dugong Rock! by raising over US$20,000 in total for conservation in Malaysia.
 Now we would like to expand and invite YOU to PARTICIPATE!  We are now launching this initiative to a wider audience and the GINdo presentation was the FIRST time it was made public…
 So far, teachers and students at the International School of Kuala Lumpur (ISKL) and Jakarta International School (JIS) have made a commitment and pledge to be involved and participate!!!
 How you can be involved:
 GO to our FACEBOOK Page and LIKE US and SHARE it with your students and friends!!
            This way you will receive the latest news and updates for SUN BEAR ROCK!
Plan your own Rockin’ 4 the Environment Event and work with us to donate any funds raised to the group we are working with and sponsoring this year the Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre (BSBCC)
                 there are MANY ways to make this happen including student driven awareness campaigns and research, arts festival, music festival, flash mob
          dance, join our Adopt a Sun Bear plan of action and other awareness and fundraising opportunities!
 Forward this message to anyone you know that might be interested and INSPIRE THEM INTO ACTION!
The NEED:  Sun Bears are an endangered species and their habitat is rapidly disappearing.  There is also a lack of awareness of their plight and the need for conservation of their habitat.  By taking part in SUN BEAR ROCK! you will help raise awareness and vitally important funds for the BSBCC to help protect this valuable and little known species!
 FOR MORE DETAILS OR IF YOU’D LIKE TO BE A PART OF SUN BEAR ROCK! PLEASE LET US KNOW!
 MANY MANY THANKS!
