If you would
prefer to
buy a print
of the original
painting,
Galen has
kindly agreed
to also
donate 50%
of the purchase
price to
Chipembele.
The prints
are freely
available
for sale,
priced according
to size,
mount and
frame choices
from $42
- $181.
They do
not form
any part

The
proceeds
100% of
the proceeds
of the auction,
if the reserve
is reached,
will be
used in
Chipembele’s
orphaned
and injured
animal programme.
Plans are
in place
to construct
a larger,
more appropriate
small mammals’
cage and
a large
secure elephant
boma at
Chipembele
this year.
Some funds
have already
been donated
but more
are still
needed to
make the
projects
viable and
the enclosures
constructed
to a high
standard.
They will
be used
in the rearing
of orphaned
and injured
animals
and their
subsequent
rehabilitation
to the wild.
Please
support
this project
by making
a bid today.
Thank
you!
