ABOUT BJWDF USA
The first is our contributers. BJWDF USA mails this list about every two months for specific appeals. The second portion of the database consists of 'foster parents'. This is a scheme whereby the general public are invited to adopt an animal. BJWDF USA was one of the first charities to start such a project seeing the need to give something back to the donor. We currently have elephants, rhinos, chimps, tigers, cheetahs, river dolphins, tortoises and a Maasai Cultural Village on our adoption list. An adult 'foster parent' receives a t-shirt, a certificate with a color picture of the orphan and an update on their orphan's progress. We have found this to be very successful way to engender empathy. A child "foster parent" receives their choice of t-shirt, baseball cap or backpack, a certificate with photograph or their chosen orphan and an update of their orphan's progress. We also have children's books available. The third part of the database is our membership database. We offer 6 membership options. Membership is for one year and you will receive our newsletter plus updates on the projects we are involved with.
