AfriTrust is an online interactive non-profit trust that helps to source donations and raise capital for carefully selected conservation or animal welfare projects that conserve wildlife and the natural environment, and help uplift local communities.
What is AfriTrust?
AfriTrust is an online fundraising portal for wildlife welfare projects. Our aim is to find interesting wildlife welfare projects and provide opportunities for caring people to help by either adopting individual wild animals or by making a much-needed donation. AfriTrust hosts a website designed to provide you with images and constant updates of daily happenings at the projects that AfriTrust will participate in.
Adoptions and Donations
Our projects will be mainly involved in wildlife rehabilitation and conservation. Most of these organisations are non-profit and constantly struggle financially as wildlife welfare is not an income generating business. Our aim is to assist in raising funds for wildlife welfare causes through adoptions of animals and general donations. See Adopt Me and Donations.
The story behind AfriTrust
AfriTrust utilizes the proven concept that an interesting website highlighting worthy wildlife welfare causes can provide a significant source of donor funding. Wildlife welfare causes are often poorly funded and struggle to survive.
AfriTrust offers a portal that has access to thousands of interested and concerned people around the world. This allows our projects to raise funds from a unique audience – one that they would not have access to in their day-to-day fundraising activities.
By offering an interesting and informative website, with live images and updates from the field, AfriTrust has the ability to retain a global audience. The well established track record of AfriTrust [we have been running for almost two years now] allows wildlife projects to tap into a ready-made audience for their fundraising efforts.
AfriTrust does not charge a commission for this process. We cover a small monthly cost of maintaining the website, after which all donations are passed through to the nominated projects. All AfriTrust work is done on a volunteer basis. We pride ourselves on being able to raise donations at a cost significantly lower than the norm. This means that for every dollar you donate, you can be assured that almost all of it reaches the project in question.
