Today, one million plant and animal species face the threat of extinction. The major cause is the loss and fragmentation of habitat. But it's not too late to turn the tide for wildlife. Our 2023 United NYC Half team is doing exactly that! They are hitting the pavements, running from Brooklyn to Manhattan on Sunday March 19, 2023. They are part of our mighty "Team Elephant", raising funds every step of the way to save elephants and all wildlife who share their habitats in southern Africa.
Wild Tomorrow Fund is focused on saving and restoring habitat in KwaZulu-Natal South Afric to create a wildlife corridor that expands wild space and will link two large wildlife reserves together, reconnecting an area of over 1 million acres. The corridor benefits many threatened species from elephants to black rhinos, leopards, lions, giraffe, elephant and more, while providing extra climate resilience via the movement and water-filled habitat it provides.
We work together with the local community to ensure that our wildlife conservation work brings tangible benefits to the people who live alongside the wildlife corridor. This includes creating jobs for our rangers, the 14 community women on our "Green Mambas" team who undertake our manual ecosystem restoration work, while also supporting children in the community at the three creches we support.
