INNOVATIVE + NON-INVASIVE
Polar bears are directly affected by the unprecedented melting of sea ice and subsequent habitat destruction. Many of the techniques used to collect polar bear research data, like radio collars, have not evolved over the last 30 years. Some methods currently employed are invasive and especially intrusive.
With the unprecedented melting of sea ice, polar bear habitat is being destroyed at an alarming rate. Polar bear survival is increasingly challenged. The PBF believes in exploring non-invasive options to help polar bears thrive.

Hosted by The Winnipeg Foundation, the Polar Bear Fund (PBF) will support small, meaningful projects that honour polar bears on an annual basis. Rather than channeling funds to larger organizations, the PBF is designed to enhance smaller, more innovative ideas and fund them quickly. The fund’s advisors will assess the potential and need of proposed initiatives with a focus on community-driven polar bear projects.
Northern Manitoba is home to the Western Hudson Bay population of polar bears and the region of Churchill is home to the largest polar bear migration in the world. The PBF, aptly located in Manitoba, believes it is our responsibility to advocate as leaders in thoughtful polar bear understanding, management, research, and ultimate conservation of the species.

Home to the largest polar bear migration in the world - this community is affectionately known as The Polar Bear Capital of the World.
KAL BARTESKI, an artist who paints polar bears, created the PBF to support ideas and initiatives that honour polar bears and their place in the Arctic. Community-driven research and management as well as public education and awareness are the top priorities of the fund.
“The idea of wilderness needs no defence.
