My Nonprofit Reviews

Dear Friends,

There are countless, wonderful non-profit organizations that do so much. It can sometimes be overwhelming, trying to help them all. I have donated to many in my life. When I came upon this one years ago, I was certain that their efforts and goals were straight from the heart, and hope was no longer lost for the elephants that are being "trained/beaten" for selfish human reasons. Elephants are one of the smartest, sweetest, loyal creatures on earth, and for circuses, zoos, and traveling side shows to utilize them for their greedy money making shows is outrageous. What they do to them is abhorrent. I have picketed the circuses, and write countless letters to organizations and to the newspapers in hopes that it may educate even one person. When I found this wonderful organization, that seeks elephants out and with great perseverance, eventually rescues and adopts them from their nightmare of a life, my heart cried with joy, and gave my heart a ray of hope and sunshine. And the fact that the Elephant Sanctuary does not permit spectators, only the ele-cam, that just proves their utmost loyalty back to these beautiful creatures that deserve the peace and respect they finally are receiving. I invite and encourage anyone to send even a small amount, $10, $20, $50 or place them in your will... to ensure these souls receive the special diet, medical attention and that the staff can continue tending to their paradise on earth....which is what God had intended in the beginning anyway. Kudos to the Elephant Sanctuary! I hope in my lifetime, with the help of the Elephant Sanctuary, all circuses and side shows who en-cage and chain these wonderful creatures will cease. Most Sincerely, Kim Sedgwick, Macomb, IL
