3. Show how much you care about Canada\u2019s wildlife<\/h3>\n

The Goose Gala has a direct impact on Canadian wildlife by raising funds for the CWF Wild by Nature <\/em>campaign. Held during National Wildlife Week, this year\u2019s gala is focused on \u201cGiving Wings to Wildlife Conservation\u201d. That means your ticket will support butterflies, songbirds and bees, all of which are in decline due to habitat loss, impacts from pesticides, and climate change.<\/p>\n

Canadian supermodel, former Canada\u2019s Next Top Model judge and CWF\u2019s National Wildlife Week Ambassador Yasmin Warsame will be at the Goose Gala to showcase the importance of protecting the wildlife that roam our skies.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
