    Yeah that's right - what better reason to mark an event and date than to raise money and awareness for the worlds' largest animals. They can't ask for the help they so desperately need, but we will be that voice of help and with the generosity of donations from people just like you...we can make a difference to their lives. Please watch the short clip to meet a very special elephant and one of the pioneering teams we support. Big elephant and rhino hugs from the THWT team x

  • Auckland Marathon event week is here !!

      29 October 2015

    An elephant is poached EVERY 15 minutes in Africa .... from the minute Gareth starts the marathon to the moment he crosses the finish line - 20 elephants, yes 20 elephants would have been unnecessarily and tragically poached. Help us help The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust to protect the wild herds and rescue the orphaned young victims by making a small donation.

  • the ease of motivation...

    ...comes from this image of Thandi the poaching survivor. The horrific suffering she experienced at the hands of human beings is now behind her as calf Thembi dances at her feet. They are both alive today and give hope to their species because of the Saving the Survivors team. What more motivation can one need.
