For the love of giraffes
A vision and a mission
In 2016 USA Today posted an article; Giraffes Face a Silent Extinction. That was the beginning.
That same year Michele Mattingly, a life-long giraffe lover, spent ten days in Africa and came away with a vision. With the support of her new friend Kefas, a Tanzanian national, a plan was formed. Later, Tomson, a wild animal wrangler, and Moureen, a conservationist and educator, both from Uganda, came on board. Slowly, family and friends, local and abroad joined in and The World Giraffe Alliance was born.
Our mission: Stop the silent extinction.
We educate and bring awareness to communities and groups world wide, but our primary focus is to build a giraffe sanctuary in Tanzania Africa right in Maasai territory! Through donations, fundraisers and personal assets, our small group, and many others who love giraffes, are working to build that dream.
A giraffe preserve right in sight of Mount Kilimanjaro. We have the land, we have the people, we have the vision, now we need the funding.
We are working on grants and investors, but it is mostly individuals who care that make the difference. We invite you to be part of Team Twiga. Won't you join us?
