SAVE THE ELEPHANTS
SAMBURU, KENYA
Save the Elephants (STE) was founded more than 20 years ago by the long-time elephant researcher Iian Douglas-Hamilton. Save the Elephants is active in the research and monitoring of elephants, the protection of elephants together with wildlife departments, protected area managers and communities, to assist their efforts to defend elephants against ivory poachers and traffickers. STE assists in the Human Elephant Co-existence plans and generates awareness globally. Together with STE we support their educational program and ensure that especially girls receive a continuous education and are not subjected to FGM, beading practice or married-off early. We pay the meals for approx. 133 children in boarding schools and ensure that these children do not travel along dangerous routes daily.
