Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

As part of our education and awareness strategy we will be attending a series of Gap Year Fairs in the UK. The fairs are held at well known colleges throughout the country such as;

Eton College and Cheltenham College.

The fairs are visited by thousands of young people and their parents and they are the next generation of travellers to Asia. If they are not aware of all the facts they WILL visit places where welfare of the elephants is not at the top of the agenda. We have also had alarming reports of elephant camps taking students from around the world to live in the camps selling them a story of helping Asian elephants. Due to lack of information these students are contributing to shocking conditions and very poor welfare at camps where elephants are still trained and used for shows which demand harsh training methods.

We want to raise awareness for the plight of elephants trapped in the tourist industry and encourage these young people to just think before they leave on their trips about how they spend time with elephants and indeed many other animals they encounter on their travels.

We cannot do this without your help !!!!

PLEASE could we ask for your support; the cost of each fair is £100 and we would like to attend four spread across the country. We also need to cover printing costs for flyers. As a UK registered charity the cost of the stand is reduced for us which is a great benefit.

We need to raise £500 GBP to cover the cost and would welcome donations PLEASE smile emoticon ...... EVERY donation will help.

EVERYONE who donates will receive a small elephant themed gift from us, so please email your address to sarah@mahouts.org if you would like to claim your gift.


Thank you from the Mahouts Elephant Foundation team xx
