Our Project!

We have finally found out what project we are on in South Africa! We will be doing conservation work in Kruger National park...

More specifically we will be working within the Mdluli Concession in Kruger National Park, South Africa assisting with biodiversity surveys and conservation management. The Mdluli Private Concession covers over 3000 hectares, it is part of the 3 million hectares that make up Kruger Proper. The Mdluli Concession is named after the tribe, which owns the area. The main project on the Mdluli Concession is currently one concerning the effect of elephant damage and fire damage on the populations of other species such as birds, small mammals and invertebrates. The project has been going for around 2 years and will be continued by International Student Volunteers (ISV), which is us!

Although we have already raised some money for this project, which we are extremely grateful for, we have not yet reached our goal. We would really appreciate any amount you can afford, remember nothing is too small, honestly, every little bit counts. Help us to conserve South Africa's beautiful land and animals. You can make a donation by clicking on the "donate" button to the right of this page.

Thank you again for all your support!

Julie, Linda and Scott.
