At the Shannon Elizabeth Foundation, we strive every day to be a catalyst for positive change in actions and attitudes towards wildlife and their natural habitats. This is our mission. We feel a deep connection to the world and its inherent beauty. But every single day, we also see shameful examples of the reckless destruction of nature. We see animals being treated as commodities and wild landscapes being stolen for selfish gain. We have no right to do this, yet it goes on all over the planet and with very few consequences for the perpetrators.As the Irish statesman and philosopher Edmund Burke so rightly said: "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." For us to stay quiet and do nothing would make us no better than the greed and arrogance we denounce. We must, therefore, stand up for what we believe. We must share our voices and our energies and encourage others to join the movement towards a better, healthier planet. We hope you will join us in this crusade.At SEF, we believe that the greatest achievements in conservation derive from cooperation and collective support for common goals. By inspiring united action in championing wildlife and wild places, we are committed to strengthening and broadening our partnerships with like-minded global organizations.The Shannon Elizabeth Foundation is registered in the United States of America as a fully compliant 501(c)(3), and in South Africa as a registered non-profit organization (NPO) with the South African Revenue Service and as a Public Benefit Organization (PBO) with the Department of Social Economic Development.And please, never forget…we are all one. What we do to the animals and the planet, we also do to ourselves.
