OPERATION LION DROP
What is a Lion Drop?
As we are witness to a humanitarian horror in people’s lives, BE A LION steps out of the Jungle for Regis and Mimi to give the gift of the value of the arts to any child torn from their lives. A message of hope and inspiration, a coping tool, food for the mind, who knows, maybe a smile, will be found. Be A Lion believes in the power of the arts in a life of wellness, development, and healing. Producer Tuska, writer and songwriter Dave Wilson and Jim Henson’s cartoonist, Guy Gilchrist bring you this message of hope and inspiration. BUCC is proud and honored to be a part of this beautiful work of healing.
