ELEPHANT WEEK 2024 : Raising Awareness for Wildlife Conservation
Every year, The Elephant Foundation (TEF) in Hong Kong dedicates a week to educating the public about community and conservation efforts in Africa. This year, we are thrilled to announce our annual Elephant Week, taking place from 25 to 30 November 2024. During this special week, we will engage with schools, corporates, and organisations across Hong Kong, continuing our mission to raise awareness about the challenges faced by elephants, as well as many other endangered species. Our focus is on empowering youth to make informed choices regarding ivory purchases, which are often linked to poaching.
To date, we have reached over 40,000 students, enlightening them about the importance of these magnificent creatures and the urgent need for conservation programmes. By educating young minds, we inspire them to contribute to the cause in meaningful ways.
For this year, we will have our 10th anniversary dinner on 27 November, held at the prestigious Hong Kong Club. This event is not only a celebration of our efforts but also a crucial opportunity to raise funds for ongoing conservation initiatives. We look forward to sharing our vision with you and highlighting the urgent need for wildlife conservation.
Join us in our mission to educate, inspire, and protect these majestic animals. Together, we can make a difference!
PARTNERSHIP WITH THE LOCAL MEDIA
The Elephant Foundation actively collaborates with local media to create awareness and engage in impactful discussions surrounding the critical issue of the illegal wildlife trade in Hong Kong. In a thought-provoking radio broadcast, in partnership with RTHK Radio 3, we delved into the underlying reasons behind the prevalence of this illicit trade. Guests included Daniel Ole Sambu from Kenya's Big Life Foundation, renowned for his vast knowledge and experience in wildlife conservation.
PRIVATE EVENTS
In addition to our highly anticipated gala dinner, The Elephant Foundation actively organises exclusive private dinners and other bespoke events during The Elephant aimed at raising awareness about the dire situation faced by endangered species across the African continent. We extend an open invitation for collaboration or speaking engagements, as we firmly believe in the power of collective efforts to make a significant impact. Should you wish to join forces in our mission or explore potential partnerships, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.
