Description: A run to raise funds for the conservation of African Wild Dogs and awareness of how close they are to extinction.
A run to raise funds for the conservation of African Wild Dogs and awareness of how close they are to extinction.
The boys completed the run, generated significant interest in an animal not commonly known to be endangered and raised a staggering $47,000 to support conservation efforts.
Those boys are now men. And in December 2016, they will reunite to celebrate the 20 year anniversary of the event by completing the run again. The intent will be the same – to do something meaningful to protect one of Africa’s most iconic animals. A forgotten species. A species that doesn’t generate the same attention as rhinos or elephants, yet is equally as important.
