Foundation supports the Cheetah Outreach Trust
The Cheetah Outreach Trust is based on the Spier
Wine Estate in the Cape. One of the goals of the Trust is their belief that
todays children are the future policy makers and conservationists of the
country. They endeavour to instil in the children an appreciation and love
for our wildlife. This they do by education programs which include visits to
schools ands taking an ambassador cheetah with them. Please contact Dawn
Glover to arrange a school visit - 082 872 4007. These programs are also run
at Spier and the Foundation recently donated money to build a pavilion at
the cheetah run.
The aims of Cheetah Outreach are
-
Increase awareness of the diminishing numbers of free ranging cheetahs in the wild;
-
Assist Cheetah Conservation Fund (CCF) in efforts to ensure the survival of the cheetah by
fundraising;
-
Where possible to breed
cheetah in captivity and promote co-operation between captive breeding
facilities in Southern Africa.
