Sophie has been working and saving her own money to adopt a panda through Pandas International since she was in second grade—now she’s in 5th. She has played her violin in Birmingham (Alabama), Tuscaloosa, New Orleans, and Ireland to earn donations, also along the way donating hundreds of dollars to the Ireland Seal Rescue and to several rain forest trusts. When she set such a high goal for Pandas International, I have to admit I had no idea whether she could do it. Well, yes she can!  We’re so proud of her 🙂 Sophie raised $1,000 and has adopted Bing Bing.

Thank you Sophie for your amazing dedication and generosity!  You are making a difference in helping us to save the Giant Panda.
