Rich investors want to buy up this majestic wildlife corridor
A majestic and essential breeding ground for elephants is about
to be sold off to international investors and destroyed, but a nearby Maasai
community is trying to come to the rescue -- we can help them win!
These indigenous leaders already run a wildly successful
conservancy and if they can show they have the resources to acquire the land
and remove the fencing that threatens migrating herds, the sellers say they
have a deal. But investors are already calling with big offers, so they need
to move fast -- that's where we come in!
Just 200 dollars will allow the community to grow the
conservancy by a whole acre of essential land! Together we can help create
the longest wildlife corridor in East Africa. Are you in?

We don't have any time to lose. The land could be swept into an
international investor agreement any day, and then all hopes of preserving
this wildlife corridor would be lost. And the more money we raise, the more
land the Maasai can clear and maintain! Giving them the power to expand the
survival of thousands of species!
For decades, private landowners have put up fences throughout
Maasai Mara, where wildlife need to be able to roam free in order to
survive. Wildebeests, giraffes and other creatures then get trapped in the
wire, dying slow, painful deaths.
Nashulai Maasai Conservancy changed that by uniting 6,000 acres
where humans and animals now live side-by-side, reviving ancient practices
and allowing all to flourish.They’ve been recognized by the UN for restoring
the threatened ecosystem, all while reducing poverty among their community
by training and paying young people to patrol and protect the land.
In just five years, the Nashulai Maasai Conservancy has turned
once abandoned land into a thriving home to 5,000 wildebeests and zebras,
100 giraffes, and five families of elephants, including 10 babies born in
recent months! And by creating jobs patrolling the area, they’ve found a
groundbreaking way to protect their livelihoods and their land.
If we can raise enough, the local community can move quickly to
join the conservancy, tear down the fences, and develop local capacity to
protect and regenerate this expanded wildlife corridor. And we can keep up
our campaigning to protect wild places worldwide. Can you chip in to make
it happen?

Time and time again, SumOfUs has stood with indigenous
communities across the globe. From joining forces with communities in Brazil
to fight back against the destruction of the Amazon to standing with
activists in Southeast Asia beating back the palm oil industry, when
indigenous communities ask for our help, we spring into action. Let’s do it
again.
Thanks for all that you do,
Allison, Emma, and the SumOfUs team
