It is aimed at protecting the environment, conserving, restoring and securing biodiversities.
It gives elephants that have been hurt or abandoned by their herd an opportunity to be cared for and nurtured back to health, before being let into the wild again.
Some elephants are lost when they are young, and therefore they are taken care of until they can be reunited with their mother or let back into nature.
This cause enables a spread of word as to how important wildlife is and to prevent these animals from being extinct.

This cause can be supported in several ways including donations which can be utilised to continue the uprising awareness, and to support the animals through necessities. Examples include milk bottles, food, shelter maintenance etc.

To gather the funds, we can do one of the followings:
1. Bake Sale
Animal shaped pastries are hand-baked and sold. The cute shape can boost sales and popularize among children and adults alike. Our cause can thus reach an even wider audience.
2. Games App
3. Afternoon Tea
4. Lucky Draw
5. BBQ Night

The elephants are the largest land mammals on earth, but due to human intervention, they are at serious risk of extinction. There are many threats to the elephants like ivory poaching, human-wildlife conflict, and habitat destruction. Sheldrick Wildlife Trust's mission is to save the natural habitat of these species, address animal welfare issues, and rescue them.
To encourage others to help this cause you can:
- Talk about the current situation and how frustrating the numbers are.
- Discuss the plummeting  amount of elephants that need our protection as the numbers of them dropped in approximately more than ten times since the early 20th century.
- Cover that the Shedrick Wildlife Trust is a reliable charity organisation, and the donated money will be spent on the preservation of wildlife. This project is working for more than 40 years, helping the environment, gaining its trustworthiness.
- Show how the website provides people who want to help with many different options of donating.
- Sheldrick Wildlife Trust has many partners and by purchasing their items you directly support the charity.
- Suggest to others to subscribe to their social media to help spread awareness and develop this organisation.
