Walking Safari Challenge for rhino conservation
Allafrica.com reports that adventure travel and safaris organiser &Beyond has launched its 'Footprints of Hope' walking safari challenge - in association with its social development partner Africa Foundation, and professional soccer player Gordon Gilbert.
'Footprints of Hope' aims to raise rhino conservation awareness.
The threat of rhino poaching has recently moved into the western corridor of the Kruger National Park, where several of &Beyond's safari lodges are situated. &Beyond rangers Mark Shaw, Lennox Mathebula and Lyson Ngwenya, along with Black Aces soccer stalwart Gordon Gilbert, will raise awareness of this heightened danger by setting out on foot through the communities surrounding the affected area on an 11-day walk that will begin at &Beyond Kirkman's Kamp on Thursday, 29 December.
The group will move through the nearby communities, where they will stop for educational visits. They will also participate in three 'Goal is Life' soccer competitions. On their way, Allafrica.com reports, the 'Footprints of Hope' campaigners will also be raising funds for Africa Foundation's education and development projects for the communities that they will be walking through, namely Huntington; Justicia; Lillydale; Dumphries; Hluvukani; Tlhavekisa; and Welverdiend.
