Story
The Old Mutual Two Oceans Marathon (OMTOM) is a world renowned event, and as one of their official 2016 charities, this is a great opportunity for us to raise awareness and funds for our conservation work in Zimbabwe.
We run multi-faceted programs focused on rural education and capacity building, habitat preservation and the conservation of Africa's large carnivores - in particular the endangered African wild dog. We currently monitor and safeguard one of the strongest populations of African wild dogs in the world.
We are a small organisation with no yearly guaranteed funds other than what we actively raise. Untied funds, such as the money raised during the OMTOM event, are a fundamental support base for us, allowing us to keep our scouts in the field, our vehicles on the roads and our education officers active in the rural schools we support when funds are scarce.
Please help us reach our fundraising target! Your support will make an overwhelming difference to our conservation efforts.
