As you already know, the point of our fundraiser is to educate as many kids as possible and make sure they’re aware of the fact that if we don’t do anything now, some amazing species are going to go extinct.
On the 9th of January, we received 45 kids from an orphanage in the neighbourhood. They all arrived at Cheetah Experience around lunch time and we made sure they had a nice place to sit to eat their lunch. After they’d finished, we split them up in groups and made them watch a short video about the project. Then it was time to start their tour.
We took all of these kids around the property and showed them all of our animals. While doing the tour, we made sure we told them all about conservation and the importance of it. When they left, they were aware of the fact that the future is in their hands and they’re the ones who will have to work together to avoid extinction in the future.
Education is one of the main keys to the survival of any species. Thanks to your donations, we were able to contribute to the fight against extinction. We’re not quite there yet, but every little bit helps!
