Donations to the SAVE FOUNDATION are used almost entirely for the purchase of equipment, motor vehicles, spare parts, fuel, etc, for use in the field in Southern Africa, primarily in Zimbabwe, for actions supported by the foundation.
All administrative expenses and all travel to the field by committee members are paid for or donated by the committee members. There are no salaried staff at the SAVE FOUNDATION - all our time is donated.
Donations made in Australia are tax-deductible. We are currently working on getting tax-deductibility for donations made from other countries.
Nov-2007:
we have created the
Imire
Rhino Fund,
the proceeds of which will be used in the best
possible way: reward money, milk powder and glucose
for Tatenda the newly-born and now orphaned little
male calf, and increased protection for other
captive-bred rhinos. Please donate
urgently, and 100% of your donation will go towards
Imire. For all tax
deductible donations
to this Fund
of $100 or more we will send you a DVD,
"That we still have rhinos..,"
our world class documentary from the May trip, the
story of some of our projects in Zimbabwe.
