Ele the Elephant, who is proudly representing the children’s artistry from the storefront window of the Artisan Center, has fueled a great deal of elephant interest, conversation and art. Leading us to ask how our love of elephants might contribute to their care and protection in nature? SOOOOO we chose to put our love of elephants to good use.
After some research (and a great lead by our Toddler teacher
Kelly) I contacted The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. Their organization was exactly what we were
hoping for! When I informed them of our
intentions to raise funds on behalf of their organizational efforts in Kenya,
they donated 40 beautiful children’s tops (all size 4-5), designed by J Crew (8
glitter printed, grey sweatshirts and 32 lightweight navy blue embroidered
sweaters) to our efforts. WOW!!!!!
These tops are available to the first 40 people who donate
25$ or more to our fundraising efforts.
There is a glass jar across from Catherine’s desk for anyone
who would like to participate.
All donations are welcome and no amount is too small!
