Team Pumba - R50 000 goal

R39 861 of R50 000 raised

Why are we running?  

Team Pumba is running to raise funds for the exciting introduction of a new female cheetah into the reserve. The cheetah population is under huge stress in Africa and there are approximately 7000 cheetahs left in the wild, meaning that genetic diversity and breeding populations are crucial to the future of the species. Pumba will be relocating a young female from the Hoedspruit Endangered Species Centre and all funds raised will go towards her relocation and introduction into Pumba, where she should be gleefully welcomed by the 2 males on site. We have set ourselves a goal of R50 000.00, which will cover all relocation and introduction costs, with any potential excess being directed into our Pumba Foundation projects, which help manage the elephant and lion populations, as well as our social responsibility projects Once you have made your donation, please send your proof of donation to neale@pehotels.co.za. 

All donors’ names will be placed on a commemorative donor’s board, which will be placed alongside the cheetah reintroduction boma. 

In addition to this, we will be giving away a weekend stay for 2 people as a lucky draw prize for donors! R500 gets you one entry, R1000 gets you 3 entries and R2000 gets you 5 entries. Plus, another one entry per R250 above R2000.   

Keep an eye on the Pumba Private Game Reserve social media page for the next 6 weeks and watch Neale and his team train for the marathon and share insights and stories from Pumba’s conservation efforts in the greater landscape!
