Hi everyone.

I didn't know where else to go so I decided that I will ask what I need to know here. (hope that is okay)

QUESTION
One of my friends here where I study wants to start an anti-rhino poaching foundation and he wants to get some information about how to start something like that. Where can we find information about starting a foundation? We want to see if we can make a difference or just help where we can.

Thanks

Bookworm, there are plenty of these foundations already, in fact, too many individual ones in my opinion. ;-)

Why don't you get them to get involved in our Timbi Friday venture, at least by joining us you have the knowledge of where every cent of your money is going. \O

Are these numbers official? If they are, as bad as it is, it is only two in the past week, a huge improvement, if you can call any poaching an improvement. 0*\

Yep.
They are, but we do not always get all the info.
SP for instance does not give out poaching numbers anymore and always refers to the DEA updates which we only get once a week.
The new one should be coming in any day now. 0: 0:
