Since I last posted about donations at the end of November I have received the following: Pirjo $50, Richard $50, Wanda $20 and Angela $50.
Thank you very very much. Thank you also to Happy Hollow Zoo and Vanessa who continue to support me and my Rangers. They collected lots of electronic waste recently and raised money for us! That is just amazing to me!
It has been an incredible year for us. Your words of support, your interest and your inspiring generosity has taught us a great deal.
Me & some of my Rangers in the Advance Force
See you in 2008!

Category: My Rangers, Sponsor My Rangers, Virunga National Park | Date: Sep 05 2007 | By: admin
I would like to provide an update of my Rangers who are sponsored to date. As you know there are 49 of us in the Advance Force, of which I am the leader. We were formed as an emergency unit for Virunga National Park, and as such move around the park as the situations dictate - like with the current emergency. It costs $244 to sponsor a Ranger. The breakdown of this is listed here.
I am still in the Southern Sector of Virunga - with two of the three Troops of the Advance Force. We have been conducting patrols into the charcoal sector and the gorilla sector to help the rangers here after the gorilla massacre in July. As you know from the gorilla blog the situation has been very tense here in recent days and the rebels have taken control of the gorilla sector. I have also been writing posts on the gorilla blog because I am down here working in this sector, and I shall continue to do this. I am spending a lot of time on patrol.
In the meantime here is the breakdown.
I am sponsored by Happy Hollow Zoo each month. Thank you very much.
Deo is sponsored by Rachelle and friends for $106 out of the $244.
Joseph and Jules Aloma, the brothers, are the leaders of 2 Troops. Joseph is sponsored fully by Libby and Jules by Kevin in England. WildlifeDirect tells me he is also going to put on music concerts to raise money.
Kavusa is also sponsored $35 per month.
Delphin is sponsored fully by Georgina O. and has been since February.
Isaya is sponsored $10 a month.
And Mwaka $25 per month.
If you would like to sponsor one of my Rangers, please email info@wildlifedirect.org. We need sponsors for all of us and we are grateful for all the support we get from you.
Thank you. Elie
