My Nonprofit Reviews

I met APOPO thanks to my daughter's insistence. She was very young, then, but she found it on socials, and said it was very interesting... So I accepted, and, by a very small sum, began "sponsoring" a female rat, Ikemba, until her sudden passing away. Then I was assigned to Shuri, and I followed 4 years of her progress... Until she retired. Now it's Baraka's time! It's interesting to know how they work, and how they change lives... We are not - usually - aware of this risk (unexploded mines or other), and this help to remind us of different living conditions in other part of the world.
Other Herorats save lives by smelling TBC... Their nose is fantastic!

I like rodents very much... And when my daughter found Apopo, a charity that not only employs rats, making them useful and well-cared for, but - and that's amazing! - uses them for a very dangerous job, saving lives, both of bombs disposal engineers and of country people living near mined fields... I found it extraordinary. And if you think that research is more important... Other rats discover TBC from spit samples! So... every one has his/her own rat protector!
