Adopt a Baby Elephant

Maniago Safaris has a long history with elephants and the “foster a baby elephant project”. They would encourage you to participate in this worthy cause! Maniago’s Annabella Francescon and Duncan Muriuki, also Trustees for The Angels of Hope Foundation, a charity in East Africa devoted to “Giving back to our society and our environment,” have made elephant fostering a central focus in their organization. The majestic elephant is at the heart of wildlife in Africa. Without these gentle giants, the very concept of environment and conservation would no longer exist.

Through a fostering program driven by the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, careful nurturing of orphaned baby elephants lets them grow into healthy creatures who are reintroduced to roam the wilds of Africa. Rescuing these precious creatures and fostering an orphan elephant enables one to become a part of that elephant’s life; to see them grow into healthy adults with a happy long life.

The Angels of Hope Foundation also educates the young children in the country to understand, respect and save these mighty creatures.

Maniago Safaris has for decades specialized in tailor-made safaris in East Africa, which allows their customers to experience first-hand the majestic wildlife and exotic cultures of Africa. The company is owned and operated by experienced travel professionals who know and love this part of Africa. For them, Africa is their home and they are deeply proud of its culture and wildlife, especially the elephant, which is the symbol of Africa, and indeed their own.

Annabella and Duncan hope their passion for these enchanting creatures will inspire others to foster a baby elephant as well, so these animals do not go extinct.
