Even freezing winter temperatures of 0 degrees did not stop the little acitivists with their sales booth

Anna, Finja, Iara and Kyran were among the youngest visitors of the Animalma anniversary in October 2022.
The four young animal rights activists were so inspired after the event that they started crafting the very next day and sold their creations in their neighbourhood.
Their handmade items – from bracelets to notebooks to plush bananas – were very well received and so they were able to collect an amount of CHF 300 in donations, which they handed over to me personally shortly before my trip to Bolivia.
With the proceeds, I was able to buy milk powder, vitamin supplements and nappies for the primate babies of Senda Verde, which the orphans urgently need and represent a major cost for the refuge.
And the Senda Verde staff were very touched when I told them the story behind this very special donation.
Thank you so much dear Anna, Finja, Iara and Kyran for your wonderful, inspiring commitment to help wildlife in Bolivia!
