LionAid is a small but highly effective charity, based in the UK, focused mainly but not exclusively on the conservation of lions, which are facing catastrophic declines in the wild. We believe that there are now only five viable lion populations left in Africa and one small population in India.

Story

To my dearest Friends and Family,

For my 9th birthday, I have decided  to raise money to protect and conserve lions who are in real danger of being wiped out by 2050. If you were thinking of getting me a present, why not donate to this charity instead? I feel it is a very special cause.

Only 40 years ago, Africa was home to 200,000 lions, now there are only around 32,000. That might still sound like a lot, but it means that in another 40 years, there may not be any alive at all. If every lion died, we would say that they had become extinct. That is why we must try to look after those lions that are left. This is called conservation; the protection of animals in danger.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page!

Take care,

Charlie
