Kicking for Rhinos was a smashing success! Thank you to everyone that played bingo, bid on auction items, donated money, bought pizza, bought baked goods and then kicked some balls all to help rhinos. Stay tuned to find out how much Bay Area AAZK raised for conservation during a week dedicated to us!

Please join me and the Bay Area Chapter for the American Association of Zoo Keepers (BAAAZK) in helping to protect rhinos and the wildlife that share their habitat. By participating with BAAAZK and its national organization’s biggest fundraiser “Bowling For Rhinos,” we will raise money and awareness for rhino conservation across the world. 100% of funds raised go to the Lewa Wildlife Conservancy and Action for Cheetahs in Kenya, support efforts to help the Javan rhino in Ujung Kulon National Park, and the Sumatrain rhino in Bukit Barisan Selatan and Way Kambas National Parks through the International Rhino Foundation.  The money raised helps pay for the park rangers who protect the wildlife in the parks and their equipment. For more information on how AAZK supports Lewa visit their 2014 report for AAZK<https://www.aazk.org/wp-
