| Pollyanna Pickering becomes International Global Ambassador for Wildlife Warriors |
|
Pollyanna is honoured to have accepted the post of Global Ambassador for Australian based conservation group Wildlife Warriors.
Wildlife Warriors is an original initiative of Bare Essentials Magazine a unique eco-friendly adventure wildlife publication, which aims to inspire people to explore, experience and appreciate the wild wonders of the earth. To ensure a future for earths natural treasures, Bare Essentials Magazine recognised the need to support the endeavours of those dedicated to protecting and preserving wildlife through research, conservation projects and educational outreach programs. 25% of all sales of the magazine are donated to one of their international Conservation partners. Their current partners include Panthera : Leaders in Wild Cat Conservation - they are working to save 37 species, Vital Ground Foundation : helps preserve the threatened grizzly bear and other animals through the conservation of habitat - one acre at a time, The Freedom To Roam : a photography Conservation Project, Cheetah Conservation Fund : working to see a world in which cheetah live and flourish in co-existence with people and the environment and the Snow Leopard Trust : the world's leading authority on the study and protection of the endangered snow leopard.
Founded in 2007 for the purpose of raising funds and awareness for wildlife, the Initiative began as a tribute campaign acknowledging people and foundations dedicated to conservation. Through collaboration with artists, authors and photographers willing to provide incentive rewards, Bare Essentials began organizing local events. The first official Wildlife Warrior event embraced the abilities and ambition of a group of primary school students who took part in a run raising over $1,000 on behalf of the Cheetah Conservation Foundation.
Today, the range and dynamic of the initiative extends worldwide to all ages and encompasses a variety of fundraising concepts including chefs hosting ‘cook-off’s for conservation’, and athletes arranging events or registering personal challenges to promote and profit our wildlife partners. Pollyanna is delighted to be able to help promote the work of Wildlife Warriors Internationally.
Bare Essentials magazine also provides free media coverage to non-profit foundations and incorporates an innovative advertising strategy which enables companies who are looking to affiliate their brand with conservation the opportunity to directly support wildlife by nominating the cost of advertising in the magazine to one of their conservation partners. The July/August issue includes an exclusive ten page article about Pollyanna’s conservation work.
