"We
need another and a wiser and perhaps a more mystical concept of
animals. Remote from universal nature and living by complicated
artifice, man in civilization surveys the creature through the glass
of his knowledge and sees thereby a feather magnified and the whole
image in distortion. We patronize them for their incompleteness,
for their tragic fate for having taken form so far below ourselves.
And therein do we err. For the animal shall not be measured by man.
In a world older and more complete than ours, they move finished
and complete, gifted with the extension of the senses we have lost
or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are
not brethren, they are not underlings: they are other nations, caught
with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of
the splendour and travail of the earth." ~ "Henry Beston - The Outermost
House"

| P4E is a 'not for profit' organisation that is raising funds to help with the conservation of elephants in Africa through giving people the opportunity to sponsor collaring an ele and actually participate in the conservation process. |

|||||||||||||||||||
| P4E are passionate about wanting to provide funding for projects that are involved with the conservation of the African elephant and raise awareness of their real (not perceived) situation. Overall numbers of African elephants have carried on reducing since the original ivory ban in 1989 and elephants are in danger of being extinct by 2020. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Conservation and research projects provide invaluable information relating to ensuring the continued existence of these magnificent creatures, yet, they are invariably underfunded and it is only the passion and determination of those involved that keep them running. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| We have to become very inventive on how to keep ancient vehicles and equipment going in harsh environments whilst trying to carry on with their vitally important work. Mostly it's only the strength of will and enduring passion and belief of the people running the projects for what they do and any volunteers that go to the projects that keep them going. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| P4E supports projects by raising funds through sponsorships, donations and offering individuals and groups the opportunities to actively be involved in the conservation process. There are also opportunities to have wildlife safaris experiences. P4E also increases awareness by providing accurate information for anyone with an interest in eles, or who wants to learn more. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| The GPS collaring of ele's provides invaluable research. We at Pennies for Eles want to help with this and this is what our sponsorships are based on. Take a look at what our sponsorships offer you! | ||||||||||||||||||||
