We loved her in ‘The Other Women’ and now Hollywood model and actress Kate Upton is using her talents and global platform to support one of the world’s most vulnerable species

Together with Canada Goose, Kate is raising awareness of the threats that face wild polar bears and her latest campaign supports Polar Bears International – a global organisation showcasing how efforts to conserve the bears Artic habitat matter to everyone, wherever in the world we call home.

As a Canada Goose PBI Ambassador Kate Upton has shared an intimate look at the fight for these wild polar bears survival. Having recently become a new mother, she is focused on building a better future for the next generation and to use her voice to drive equality and positive change. Her passion to learn and take action is at the core of her relationship with PBI as an ambassador, and her continued partnership with Canada Goose.

The Canada Goose S20 PBI collection of blue vests and parkas is available at Te Huia stores in Queenstown and Arrowtown and online at www.tehuianz.com. Store spokesperson Bruce Gibbs says it’s a versatile range that suits New Zealand’s variable climate.

“Polar Bears International is the only organisation dedicated solely to conversation of wild polar bears through science, media and advocacy and its great to see Canada Goose’s involvement.”

“For the first time ever, our customers can show their support and contribute as well with a portion of proceeds from each product sold from the S20 PBI collection going directly to this critical funding for polar bear and environmental research and advocacy. Over $3 million has been donated to date worldwide.”

There are five new PBI styles across rain, wind and lightweight down categories which layered together or worn separately will keep you comfortable and warm no matter what winter throws at you.
