Ivory belongs to elephants campaign walk hits 10,457km

I have now walked 10,457km since 2013 , 3480km across East Africa (Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania) 560 miles ( Massachusetts - Washington DC )among others in Kenya . I have reached out to the world through International ,National and Local radio's and TV stations ( BBC , Good morning America, UBC,TBC,NTV). 

This walk is geared to uniting local communities, Nations , stakeholdes , governments and wildlife agencies . It's a tough , sacrificial and demanding job however we have made some remarkable strides and we hope to achieve more on the upcoming walks across the African region . 

This walk calls for a unified approach in ending elephants poaching and by establishing a grassroot community based conservation approach . Previously communities and corporates have been left out in wildlife conservation matters , I am happy to have some of these corporate now supportingthis cause. We are now preparing for Kampala-Nakasongora -Masindi -Ziwa -Karuma -Machison Falls National Park -Gulu (370Km ) in August/September 2017.

Nairobi- Marsabit Elephant Walk

We have mapped the route for Nbo- Marsabit walk and which shall take 31 good days of walking and holding different community meetings along the route. This walk may seem shorter than others, however it might be tough due to terrain, weather and logistics. 
Walking is easier than planning , we therefore continue receiving your support that goes towards fueling our two support vehicles. We also need water, meals, support team, t-shirts and logistical support. We kindly ask all well-wishers to make their donation via Paypal account: admin@elephantcenter.org

Since we finished 3480km in 126days, I am confident that Nbo- Marsabit will be successful. So much gratitude for your continued support .
