CHARITY INFO ...
50% of the sale of each elephant bracelet is donated to Alert for Endangered Wildlife Species (AFeWiS) who's mission is protecting Tanzania's elephant populations from poaching through their beehive fence project.
With the expansion of agricultural lands into wild habitats, elephants are prone to invading and destroying the crops. As a result, crop-owners kill or poison elephants in retaliation.
To solve this, AFeWiS is leading a unique project that entails building beehives around villages. As elephants are afraid of bees, the hives are designed to drive them away from the crops, therefore avoiding any hostility.
This project is simple, natural and a proven way to reduce human-elephant conflicts and it supports bee populations while providing a revenue source for villagers who can sell the resulting honey!
STONE INFO ...
