Rhino Preservation Tour

The Rhino Preservation Tour is an initiative to raise awareness and action against rhino poaching. Stop Poaching Now is a cornerstone of the tour, with its goal being to educate the public about the effects of illegal hunting and encourage them to take action in preserving rhinos. The tour works to protect these majestic animals by providing resources for conservationists, creating local economic opportunities in rural areas, and raising awareness about endangered species.

Cocktail for Conservation

This is much more than a movement – it’s a way of life. Being aware of the effects our everyday decisions are having on the natural world around us has never been so important. Supporting charitable organizations that are making an impact and facing environmental crises head-on, while remaining mindful and diligent in our day-to-day lives will help build a better future for generations to come.
