HOPE - the 02 Community Elephant

[Mi-Amigo]

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:

Actually, where we live in Thailand, there is an elephant rescue society within walking distance and many a time we've taken left-over food to give to the elephants in the morning. It's not open to the public but there is a basket and cash tin outside for donations. You can see them from the gate but there were only three there before I left.

It is truly lovely to read about when you were in Thailand and taking leftover food to the elephants in the rescue centre.
