Project Report | Jun 1, 2015
Getting close to the end!

Hello All! 

We would like to let you know how your contribution to our project is making a difference for the children that we welcome at our camp! Over the last couple of months we have shared the DAKTARI experience with a large number of children, and we continually strive to give them the best education possible. 

For instance, we received a group of children from a nearby school who were so eager to learn that they asked to stay another week with us! This was not the first time this happened and, of course, we would have loved to have them because they were such a great group! However, it is very important for us to allow all children to come learn about the environment and wildlife at DAKTARI, so, sadly, we could not let them stay. It would not be fair to the other children!

More closely related to the impact we aim to make, earlier this month we received a call from a farmer from a nearby village who had a procupine destroying his crops. Instead of taking the easy way out and killing the animal, he heard that he could call us to take care of the animal and take it to our property, where it was released in the wild. Although a small gesture, it reflects that the local community is being affected by our project as a certain conscience has been raised about the importance of respecting animals and wildlife.

This impact is possible because of help from people like YOU! We hope that you are aware that we think of you often and we are tremendously grateful for your selflessness and your help!

Also, we are getting very close to completing this project, so help us complete it so we can start a new one! 

Thank you again for your immeasurable help! 

Best Regards, 

Manuel Camino
