Story
Welcome to the Virgin Money Giving campaign page for Save the Rhino's 2019 London Marathon team! Here, you can see the total amounts raised so far by all our fantastic rhino runners.
On Sunday 28th April 2019 our crash of enthusiastic supporters, many of whom donning our iconic costumes, are running an incredible 26.2 miles to raise awareness and importantly, vital funds for rhino conservation.
The world's rhino species are currently facing one of the greatest threats to their survival in history. Extensive poaching for the rhino horn continues to threaten the survival of this iconic species with at least 1,054 rhino being poached in 2016 in South Africa alone.
By supporting Save the Rhino International these incredible runners are supporting:
- The dedicated rangers on anti-poaching patrols day and night.
-The conservation officers educating the next generation of wildlife protectors. -The behaviour changers working tirelessly with local enforcement agencies to reduce the demand for rhino horn in Asia.
You can donate to an individual or to the Rhino Team as a whole - all donations will go directly to Save the Rhino International, helping to support rhino conservation programmes across Africa and Asia. For more information, please visit www.savetherhino.org.
