 Save
the Elephants approaches conservation from an
elephant’s perspective. We believe elephants deserve
special respect from humanity because they are sensate
beings with a higher order consciousness, and we
intend to safeguard their future in an increasingly
insecure world. It is our mission to secure a future
for elephants and to sustain the beauty and ecological
integrity of the places where they live; to promote
man’s delight in their intelligence and the diversity
of their world, and to develop a tolerant relationship
between the two species.
The
Gallman Memorial Fundation (GMF) was founded
by Kuki Gallmann in 1984 in memory of her late husband
Paolo and son Emanuele who both died tragically
in Kenya - to prove that the harmonious coexistence
of development of natural resources and conservation
of the environment and wildlife in Africa is not
just a dream. Ol Ari Nyiro ranch, in the region
of Laikipia in Northern Kenya, is becoming a model
on how this idea can be achieved.
The
Tusk Trust, instigated by a team of young people

like to ask for your support towards this eminently

role of the long-term study of elephants in Africa
to the overall conservation process, the Trust will

support the Amboseli Elephant Research Project and
similar projects undertaken as part of the African
Elephant Conservation Trust program.
The
Sheldrick Wildlife Trust has played an extremely
significant and important role in Kenya's conservation
effort, speaking out when necessary on controversial
issues and stepping in unobtrusively and rapidly
to bridge a gap or meet a shortfall during times
of economic constraint. Because in life David strongly
censored the extravagance of exorbitant overheads,
the Trust places great emphasis on minimal expenditure
in this respect, thereby true to his example and
ensuring that donations reach their target in the
most practical and positive way.
