It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!
Twas the week before Christmas
And both day and night
Baby ellies were dancing
And jumping in delight!
That people like you
And people like me
Would take the next step
To say NO to ivory!
Maybe it’s a share,
Maybe it’s a like,
Maybe it’s a foster
But whatever it might,
Little ellies in Africa hope that next year
Will be full of safety and love and no more fear.

This holiday season, give a gift that makes a difference!
1) SPONSOR an orphaned elephant with us!
We love little Kavala (GRI elephant orphans pictured above) and need your help to care for her! It costs $35 a day to feed and care for an orphaned elephant. Please consider donating to Kavala this holiday season - Become a foster parent by setting up a recurring donation of $5USD a month (or more!)
2) LIKE us on Facebook and FOLLOW us on Twitter & Instagram
then invite your friends, too, so together we can spread awareness about elephants to more people around the world. The more people know, the more people will care. And the more people care, the more things can change for the better.
3) JOIN us on our first ever photo safari to Zambia May 2016,
led by founder and director of Elephantopia, Elizabeth Chitwood. We will be visiting the Lilayi Elephant Nursery, two stunning parks, Kafue National Park and South Luangwa National Park and spending an afternoon at a local school donating books & reading to the children. Email us for details and information.
Can’t go? Our founder and director volunteers her time to lead Elephantopia. Help her cover her expenses to Zambia by donating to the “Zambia Safari” fund. Elizabeth will be spending the entire month of May as a research assistant with GRI Elephant Orphanage and leading the photo safari. The total cost for her month volunteering in Zambia is $5,000USD. Your support is appreciated.
