We raised nearly $400 this year, and Karen Paolillo, founder of the Turgwe Hippo Trust which we support in Zimbabwe was so appreciative! Below is her message to us after we made the donation this year, as well as links where you can find more awesome info about the hippos. Also, there is a link to the photo album from this year's hippoPUBamus and to more photos of the hippos.
Thanks again for a great time and your continued support for the hippos and support of having such a great time together, year in and year out!
Email from Karen Paolillo on November 16th:
You are so wonderful. Your donation came along right at the moment we needed it. The games scouts have caught a lot of poachers over the previous month and we need bonus money to pay them for their efforts, so your donation will go towards paying them and keeping these wild animals safe. My photo below for my address shows your boy Kuchek on the left standing up, I took it this year. Darrow is the smallest one sleeping next to Mum Relief near the end on the right. I will now attach Kuchek’s newsletter followed by:His photosCertificate
Links of Interest:You are so kind to not only donate but continue to support Kuchek and Darrow and I really hope you know it is people like you that allow us to do what we do here for the animals.Love and hugsKaren and Kuchek, Darrow and all the hipposKaren PaolilloFounder Turgwe Hippo Trustfacebook Turgwe Hippo Trust
