Dear Friends and Supporters,

In keeping with longstanding tradition Team 38 Bundu Fundi will be competing in the 2025 Rhino Charge representing our 30th consecutive year of competition. It has been an unbelievable journey to this point. Back in 1996 the original team would scarcely have believed that we would still be competing three decades later,having raised over USD 500,000 for charity in the process. It is a remarkable achievement that has only been achieved through the generosity of the many faithful donors we have been lucky enough to have over the years.

The Rhino Charge supports the Rhino Ark Charitable Trust which has been working to address the threats to mountain forest ecosystems and wildlife in Kenya since 1989. Not only does the trust aim to protect wildlife and its environment, but its efforts support communities living adjacent to these critical areas.

Rhino Ark continues to work closely with its governmental partner institutions (KWS and KFS) to conserve forests and wildlife in Kenya whilst working closely with the communities who border these forest areas. They are involved in funding and supporting critical work around conservation of the critically endangered mountain bongo, and the construction of an intensive protection zone in the Aberdares to enable the reintroduction of the black rhino there.

All teams competing in the event have to pledge to raise a certain amount for Rhino Ark as a condition of entry. We have pledged 1.5 million KSH for the 2025 event but we very much hope to exceed 4 million if we can.

Please help us in supporting the goals of Rhino Ark, which are so important to Kenya, its people, and wildlife. Kenya’s highland forest water towers are irreplaceable natural assets and are globally significant. We remain extremely passionate about their preservation so please give what you can to help this worthy cause.

Thank you for your support!
