My Nonprofit Reviews

GSE is one of the best sanctuaries in the world. They recently rescued a mother-daughter pair from a cement hole in the ground. Pocha gave birth to her baby girl in that cement hole in the ground 24 years ago. The cement pit and the sky is all she saw for 24 years! They arrived at sanctuary only 2 months ago and the changes are already monumental. Please visit their website and FB pages, you will be so glad you did. Also, GSE has proven that rescue of a captive elephant is NEVER a waste of time! Groups like #FreeLucy have been trying to get Lucy moved to sanctuary from the Edmonton Zoo in Canada, but the argument from the zoo is always “she is too old to move,” or “she is not healthy enough to move.” GSE has proved that it is never too late — ALL elephants in captivity deserve to go to sanctuary. ALL elephants in the wild deserve to STAY in the wild. I have donated support each rescue at GSE and can’t wait to donate to the next.

I have followed and supported GSE for years. I love elephants and everything this sanctuary stands for. There is absolutely nothing like seeing an elephant take their first steps at the sanctuary! The change is instantly noticeable and just gets greater and more heart warming (and tear inducing) as the days go by.
