Dear Friends,
Outreach has been on hold since this pandemic started in March 2020. This is mainly due to the gathering and human resources restrictions.
While International volunteers couldn’t support us through our volunteer experience and the corporates cutting off all funding, we were left without any income! Thanks to YOU we manage to survive so far.
Between lockdowns and gathering restrictions, we still managed to visit 3 different schools for Wildlife Crime Campaigns at Maatla, Sekoko and Diphuthi primary schools. The campaign was a great success! In total we had 202 kids/students that attended our lessons! We were welcomed with lots of enthusiasm and excitement.
We eventually welcomed Samuel Bishop who is our new Volunteer Outreach Manager from the UK. He is very impatient to start but … as we had to sell our 8 seater car to survive, we are a bit stuck!
In the meantime, we will drive Samuel to the schools so he can build a relationship with the local schools and be ready to start the Eco-Club in January. Hopefully by then, we will have raised enough money to buy a vehicle for the Outreach Program.
We wouldn’t be here if it wasn't for your support and for that you are important, thank you very much.
