NWHS forms alliance with CERCOPAN

April 2010

We are extremely pleased to announce that the National Wildlife Humane Society (NWHS) has recently committed to assisting CERCOPAN, particularly with publicizing our work and collecting donations on our behalf! The NWHS is a nonprofit humane society dedicated to reducing suffering among captive and non-captive wildlife through action, education and sanctuary; they maintain a wildlife rescue sanctuary with over 20 years experience in handling specialized non-native wildlife needs. The NWHS believes in innovative and creative ways to protect wildlife and wildlife habitat. Our Director, Claire Coulson, is also proud to be able to assit the NWHS through serving on their Wildlife Advisory Council.

Here is an excerpt from their newsletter:

NWHS Announces Alliances With Two African Conservation Groups

National Wildlife Humane Society is proud to announce the recent alliance with two conservation organizations conducting outstanding wildlife field work in Africa. Ewaso Lions works in the Samburu Region of Kenya Africa, and CERCOPAN operates two facilities in Nigeria Africa. In addition to the organization alliances, Paul Thomson, Director of Operations of Ewaso Lions, and Claire Coulson, Director of CERCOPAN, are now both serving on the NWHS Wildlife Advisory Council. They are both important additions to our Council and join our other experienced and knowledgeable Wildlife Advisory Council Members.

Working in the field in Africa, without USA based offices, makes it difficult to process donations and have the funds reach their operations in the wild to finance their diligent wildlife work. NWHS is a US based 501c3 non-profit wildlife conservation organization, and is capable of assisting in this capacity. We are able to accept online and mailed donations in the USA, and get the funds to these groups. NWHS will forward 100% of the donations (less PayPal, bank transfer and/or postage fees) to these two hard working groups, while allowing US donors the US Federal Tax deduction they deserve for assisting wildlife conservation field work. NWHS will also assist these conservation groups in getting the message out, on how important their field work is to wildlife conservation in Africa.
