What on earth is a "registered fundraising expert"? Presumably there will be one at Groenkloof on Tuesday, pre-selected, and this tender announcement is an afterthought! O/

Why can the SP department of "acquisitions" simply not deal with fundraisers on their own? 0-

aHa !! Sanparks should realise that the public has lost trust in them as fundraisers,

and that is why they support other fundraisers.... in the meantime,
all Sanparks has realised is that other fundraisers are doing better than them,
and they want a cut from it O/

Why should any fundraiser partake to be a statistic in the highest number of Rhino poached in 0*\ KNP.

My own opinion.

Also thought it was an honorary rangers function.

Also throws another light on rhino poaching and IMO the slow reactions to the crisis, why would Sanparks be in a rush to stop rhino poaching if it is an emotional motivating factor for fundraising which has become a huge revenue stream recently with concerned public throwing money and resources at Sanparks to try stop the poaching. :-? Money they had ringed for poaching and resources for rangers is then released because of the public being involved for other projects like hotels etc. :-?
