The 02 Community is renown for its members offering help and for caring.

 

It is with great pleasure that I can announce that, thanks to the support of members of this Community, an adoption has been set up with the Born Free Foundation for what is known as the Elephant Family.

 

The Born Free Adoption Certificate will be in the name of the "02 Community".

 

It has been decided that one of these elephants should be named HOPE.

 

The adoption pack, with the adoption certifciate and photos of these beautiful creatures, should be received within the next few days and will be posted on this thread.

 

In the meantime, here is a short video of these beautiful elephants and the Born Free Foundation:

The Adoption Pack arrived today.

Here is the image of the Adoption Certificate, which reads:

 

This is to certify that 02 Community has adopted The Elephant Family.

It is now official. The 02 Community has adopted the Born Free Foundation Elephant Family and `our` own little Hope.
