The pandemic halted tourism around the globe and poachers became even more
emboldened to encroach on protected lands. Now that the tourism industry has somewhat normalized the-boots-on-the-ground organizations have been able to generate money as
they did pre-pandemic.
It has been tough, the damage done is getting fixed by hard work and dedication. Visitors, guides and travel hotspots are now back to serving as sanctuaries for iconic wildlife. Investigations show that an animal is illegally poached every 15 minutes
GLOBAL E-RACE EXTINCTION (GERE): SPN’s initiative that unites multiple NGO’s in the fight against poaching & drives the mission by creating awareness.
Stop Poaching Now! is dedicated to wildlife
conservation through the support and coordination of community-based efforts aimed at combating poaching operations. We strive to harness the power of education to reduce the demand for illegal wildlife products.
Defending Wildlife Requires DEDICATION, EFFORT, AND RESOURCES!
Frontline anti-poaching rangers, conservation organizations, and educational
programs heavily rely on SPN’s ongoing financial and logistical support to help ensure the
very survival of species threatened with extinction. SPN seeks donations, event sponsorship,
and corporate contributions to carry out its mission an to also fund our Global Conservation
Education Programs. (GCEP)
The Painted dog is a critically
endangered species. There are
fewer than 6,500 throughout Africa.
These social animals, like all other
wildlife, have their niche in the
complex web of predator/prey
relationships that is Africa’s
ecosystem. The African wild dog is
an efficient hunter who improves the
quality of species by removing the
sick and weak and reducing
inbreeding by scattering individuals.
With your help, we are taking
important steps to secure the survival
of this enigmatic and ecologically
important species.

SPN’s GLOBAL E-RACE EXTINCTION directly benefits boots-on-the-ground organizations & SPN’s Global Conservation Education Program. (GCEP)
In 2023, we endeavor to exceed last year’s record-high fundraising triumph and push our wildlife conservation efforts to new heights, with a new goal to raise $200,000.
With 17 Global Goals in mind, SPN partners with businesses and
individuals with a focus on where they want their contribution to go. The
goals are key to their achievement. Each person or organization has its
own set of priorities which will drive the action it needs to take. SPN
aligns the goals with the our tribe of beneficiaries which through the
funds raised will make a lasting impact.
Getting to grips with the targets and indicators that sit behind each goal
is fundamental. You’ll want to understand what impact your our your
business has. With a clear strategy, SPN will drive resources for goal
orientated initiatives. With full reports and accountability our partners
can track their contribution.
Statistics indicate over the next decade, human activity will
consume 50% of intact wildlife habitats for endangered megafauna like painted dogs, pangolins, tigers, primates, bears, lions, elephants, rhinos and various other critical
species. At current rates of destruction, protected areas will be
the last bastions for wildlife in developing countries.
Year on year we are proud to have achieved fundraising
goals. This year should be the year SPN surpasses a
millstone, to have raise over $1,000,000 since inception.
By launching numerous fundraising programs, SPN over the years has supported its boots-on-theground beneficiaries and partners putting the needs of organizations to the public to raise awareness and money. SPN’s fundraising has served and impacted the organizations under its umbrella and it
would not have been possible without the generous contributions form our donor community.

At Stop Poaching Now (SPN), we believe that conservation education programs require a multi-faceted approach to reach the widest audience and have the greatest impact. They also require that the program be equally accessible to all, regardless of culture, socio-economic status, or geographic location.
Therefore, all SPN education programs are provided both free of charge and in multiple modalities, including online for access from anywhere at any time.
For decades, conservationists have been focused on sustaining the planet. With human populations, rapidly approaching 8 billion people, conservation is losing the battle.
Wild lion population is now under 20,000. Today, there are fewer than 80 Sumatran rhinos in the wild. Only 5000 pangolins and tigers remain in the wild because of the demand for fur, trinkets and mythical Asian medicine with zero scientific benefit.
When the keystone species disappear, so will the flora and fauna that depend on them. This is not just one person, or country’s problem… This is a MASSIVE GLOBAL CRISIS, It is every capable human’s responsibility.
This concept has over the years evolved. What started in 2015 as a local cycling event to raise $25,000 for elephants and rhinos, during the pandemic mushroomed into a global movement raising over $200,000 in 3 years with a potential to raise millions for education and protection of species.
This year’s concept is to further engage local communities across the globe. SPN’s ambassadors will be organizing groups of likeminded conservationists to come together in solidarity to educate, impact and continue to empower the change we need.
GERE intends to create an awareness that we all need to “join the herd”, protect habitat, co-exist with local wildlife, and safeguard the planet for
future generations. SPN and its affiliates around the globe have come together year on year to celebrate nature, create awareness about poaching and exercise health with a goal to raise funds that will support boots-on-the-ground organizations, partners of SPN and continue to
support GCEP.

It takes a village to raise an elephant…and protect
a tiger. At SPN we bring that village together!
The Stop Poaching Now! Youth Board is one of our proudest
accomplishments. Our youth program began when a few
childhood friends wished to use their creative talents and
passion for animals to bring awareness to the illegal and
inhumane killing of endangered animals in Africa and Asia.
This inspirational group consists of twenty dedicated students
in Los Angeles combining their talents for the greater good of
society. The Youth Board will continue to grow by
establishing other chapters throughout the USA and with our
global conservation partners.
