Oy, Elephants! Joel is about to have the best vacation ever!

Stop Ivory

The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust   Among other initiatives, this organization takes in orphaned elephants and rhinos, raises them and then prepares them to be successfully released back into the wild. You can "foster" a baby elephant or rhino, and not only will your donation help care for these animals, but you will receive regular updates on their progress. It's a great activity for a classroom, a scout troop or to share with a child in your life. It's rewarding for grown ups as well and makes a wonderful and meaningful gift. Meet our fosters from this program: Sattao the elephant, who was found alone and in terrible condition, and Solio the rhino, who was orphaned due to poachers.
