My Travel Story

by: Jak Nealy Start Date: Apr 28, 2018 - End Date: Aug 25, 2018
I will be spending 2 weeks at the African Conservation Experience in November 2018.
There I will be hands on helping orphaned rhino calves overcome the tragic loss of their mothers from poaching, and adjusting to the rehab to get them grown, well, and back in the wild.

The plight on Rhino is horrific, all for their horn which is no different than our finger nails! We have lost 2 entire species of Rhino in the last few years (Western Black and the Javan) , about to lose another (Northern white) due to mass poaching for horn. There is a real war going on, with humans also losing their lives while trying to protect these ancient and valuable animals.

I've been following the organizations and donating for years, but I feel I really need to be there to help in a physical way, and to help spread awareness through my experience to hopefully help end the travesty and save the Rhino.

The volunteer experience is not cheap, neither is getting to Africa, but all donations/costs go directly to the organisation and so, right to the rhino.

I'm accepting donations to help cover airfare and the remaining program fee, as this is the bulk the expense, but will gladly accept over the suggested amount to cover travel insurance, vaccinations, and all the mandatory items I need to bring with me.

The deadline to reach my goal to pay for the placement is August 15th. All donations to this life changing opportunity are deeply, deeply appreciated.

This is something I've been pulled to do for a long time, and it will prove to be a life changing event. Any and all donations no matter how small will go a long long way for the rhino and in turn,all of us.

Thank you!

    LESS THAN A MONTH!
    Hi everyone!
    I HUGE thanks to those that have kindly donated, and those who purchased the discount rewards, I am so very grateful. I have a long way to go, and not much time left! I have also been made aware of some other expenses, so it's super important I spread this campaign far and wide to try and cover some of these costs. Please share my campaign. This work is vital to saving the critically endangered Rhinos, and all the other life that depends on their survival. thanks again! blessings. ~Jak

  • Time Is Ticking!

    Time is ticking!
    Just a few weeks left until the deadline! Thanks again to the few special people that have already donated, your love is so gratefully appreciated, and will for sure come back to you ten fold! Please, share this campaign with others that are compassionate and willing to assist. Just seeing some of the individuals that have been rescued recently, that will still need care when I arrive, makes me all the more anxious to have all my needs to get there covered.
    I'm trusting in the universe a LOT that this won't be a struggle to make this happen, so please, share, share, share! Thank you, from the bottom of my soul. Let's make good things happen.
