Gearing Up 4 Gorillas donated 735.00 for Open donation
Linda Nunn, who leads G4G, believes the best way to secure a future for the mountain gorillas in the Democratic Republic of Congo is to support the ICCN rangers, who risk their lives on a daily basis to protect the animals of Virunga National Park.
G4G sent out two trucks from the UK to Virunga NP in August 2008 - packed with binoculars and bicycles. Here are the trucks on British land, before being shipped out.
The G4G Mission:
Provide consistent, ongoing practical help to the rangers by securing them the vehicles, equipment and funding they need to do their work.
Raise awareness about the multiple threats that continue to face both the gorillas and rangers of Virunga National Park.
G4G works closely with gorillacd.org and Africa Conservation Fund to achieve their goals.
G4G raising funds for Virunga at the Great Dorset Steam Fair
In May 2010 G4G held a Gorilla Gala in the UK to raise awareness about the plight of the Mountain Gorilla in DR Congo and also funds. Over $6,000 was raised for the Rangers of Virunga.
G4G is based in the UK and is run by volunteers and backed by an ever-growing team of supporters – all determined to make a real difference in Virunga National Park. To learn more, please visit www.g4g.co.uk. Thank you.
G4G is the only UK charity that focuses 100% on supporting ICCN Rangers and the Mountain Gorillas of Virunga National Park.
