Festive Fundraiser


It was great so see the Elephants for Africa Festive Fundraiser get some publicity in the Baltimore Sun and the Towson Times. Here's me with the artwork 'Elephant Pals' in my studio.

The Elephants for Africa Festive Fundraiser (www.mydonate.bt.com/events/efafestivefundraiser) is taking place now and is an effort to conserve the African elephant. Every penny raised this season will be doubled by one of the charity’s private donors up to a total of £10,000. As an added incentive, the donor or fundraiser that donates the most will receive an original piece of artwork from international author and artist Emma Kaufmann. Emma has created a piece of art based on her love of all elephants called Elephants Pals (pictured above).

In the true spirit of global living, this piece can be sent to anyone, anywhere in the world, so all donations count no matter where it’s coming from.


Elephants for Africa has a holistic approach to its work, understanding the requirements of both elephants and the people living alongside them. In 2016, the charity wants to expand its research and education programs and partner with more communities living alongside wildlife. Donate this season and join the journey towards human-wildlife coexistence.

Join the campaign and donate today: www.mydonate.bt.com/events/efafestivefundraiser

    Hey, it is so good to know about this festive fundraiser event. I am sure it was a successful event and the organizers raised large amount of charity fund for this good cause. You know I also take part in such fundraiser events at local venue NYC. It really feels so good to help needy people.
