My Nonprofit Reviews

For a relatively smaller conservation organization as compared to the multi-national charitable groups, the Snow Leopard Trust has invested a lot of careful planning and hard work to make a remarkable impact in a significant environmental habitat: Earth's Third Pole of Upper Asia. Benefiting both the the human communities and the iconic wildlife that live in this unique and challenging habitat, this group has concentrated funds not in building offices and pursuing wasteful marketing - but for on the ground support for field work and local educational efforts that is changing lives and encouraging folks to strive for better solutions for facing the current and coming climate disruptions. .

I have been a supporter of this Trust since visiting their Elephant Nursery in Kenya in 2014. The regular updates that are sent via email are superb - with detailed information about their work and the amazing animals that they lovingly nurture, protect and heal, as well as a wealth of photos and videos to bring adopters and other supporters up close to the work on the ground and in the air. The level of commitment to the Trust's mission has never waivered, and has even grown stronger and more far-sighted since the death of its inspiring founder, Dame Daphne Sheldrick, a few years ago. This is a charity that I will continue to support for the rest of my life.
