Buy milk for a baby elephant

With your spare change, buy a bottle of milk for a baby elephant at the Wildlife Trust of India’s animal orphanage in the state of Assam.  $10 buys an orphan milk for a day.

Donate fire crackers

Buy a week’s worth of fire crackers for a family to keep elephants away from their crops (these do not harm the elephants in any way but the noise is a deterrent) ($20).

Help a farmer grow chillies

Help a farmer in the developing world grow chillies to deter elephants from his crops by establishing a seedling nursery ($50).   Elephants don’t like chillies and they provide a valuable cash crop for farmers.

Build a watch tower

Watch towers are built by local people in rural India out of raw materials such as bamboo and rope.  These are essential during the human-elephant conflict season as look outs to prevent elephants entering crops, providing an essential early warning system.   You can buy a family a watch tower for $100.

Adopt an orphan

Sponsor an orphaned elephant at the Wildlife Trust of India’s Centre for Wildlife Rehabilitation and Conservation.  Prices range from $75 for a year to $195 for 3 years.

Take home some elephant art

Multiple award winning artist Nafisa Naomi is donating most of the profits from her elephant art, inspired during the filming of ‘Elephant Wars’, to this important cause.  For just $100 you can get a very special present for yourself or for someone else, a unique elephant print, that actually helps conserve elephants in the wild.
