Drakondale High School pupil, Tristen White, is celebrating his 16th birthday in a unique and selfless way - by taking the plunge to raise funds for rhino conservation. At the end of May, his birthday weekend, Tristen will be participating in the Skydive for Rhinos in Hluhluwe, an exhilarating experience that will help make a difference in the lives of these majestic creatures.
Tristen's decision to give back for his birthday is a response to the devastating rhino poaching crisis, which leaves countless rhinos brutally slaughtered and abandoned, and a staggering number of baby rhinos orphaned and vulnerable. By supporting rhino conservation, Tristen hopes to contribute to the protection of these incredible animals and the ecosystems they inhabit.
"I wanted to do something meaningful for my birthday, and I couldn't think of a better way to make a difference than by supporting rhino conservation," said Tristen White. "I hope my skydive will inspire others to join me in this important cause."
Tristen's campaign, "Tristen's Skydive for Rhinos 2024," has a fundraising goal of R10000. Donations can be made at www.backabuddy.co.za/campaign/tristens-skydive-for-rhinos-2024 or by buying a raffle ticket. Every contribution, big or small, brings us closer to a future where rhinos can thrive.
