Over and Above Africa is on a mission to help shut down the $20 Billion a year, illegal poaching industry before all endangered animals disappear forever. This planet is in the midst of its 6th Greatest Extinction. The first that's thought to be entirely man made. In the past 50 years we've lost nearly 70% of our wildlife to extinction. Unimaginable, but true.
Over and Above Africa, through tagging and tracking endangered wildlife, triaging survivors of poaching crimes, food and medical supply programs, early learning centers, educational programs, seeking out women lead initiatives, funding sustainable projects that include tree planting and avocado harvesting and more, believes they are most effective when harnessing all these arenas at once and lending their considerable financial and mentoring support where it counts the most, at ground zero.
People can register here and start bidding on our silent auction items, then join us LIVE on October 28th at 5pm Pacific/8pm Eastern via a private Zoom link (shared with those who have registered on our auction site).
We have a wide variety of items on offer – all proceeds are in service of endangered wildlife and the communities they impact.
"Our aim is to make the saving of endangered animals in Africa a real and personal experience. We film every project we fund so that our donors & members can see how their donations positively impact critical initiatives on the ground," said Founder & CEO, Kerry David, "Our auction is just one way for those who care to help protect our wildlife."
