We now support the protection of all 5 remaining species of rhinos.
The beauty of the idea is that these fundraisers are organized by volunteers, who donate their time and organizational skills to help raise money to send directly to the places in need that directly support in-situ (in the field) Rhino conservation. Since all the people involved are volunteers, 100% of all donations are sent directly to these insitu rhino conservation areas!
Each year the American Association of Zoo keepers (AAZK) sponsors a fund raising bowl-a-thon called "Bowling For Rhinos" (BFR). This is similar to the March Of Dimes Walk-a-thon only we bowl and collect donations rather than walk. Over 60 AAZK chapters participate throughout the US and Canada raising over $300,000 annually. BFR funds support LWC- Lewa Wildlife Conservancy (formerly called Ngare Sergoi rhino sanctuary) in Kenya, Ujung Kulon National Park in Java, Indonesia and Bukit Barisan Selatan National Park (BBSNP)and Way Kambas in Sumatra. These sanctuaries not only save rhinos but also these entire ecosystems! BFR funds are sent through Lewa USA, International Rhino Foundation (IRF) and Action for Cheetahs in Kenya (ACK) to support top priority needs for wildlife conservation.
