We are extremely thankful for the HESC communities’ generosity and it is not only a pleasure, but also a privilege to thank everyone for their support last month. Thank you!

Cathryn Devenish and Hike4Rhinos. Joanne Devenish recently set off on her epic Hike4Rhinos through the Pacific Crest Trail. The route spans 2,650 miles (4,265km) from Mexico to Canada through California, Oregon and Washington. All monies pledged and donated will go to Hoedspruit Endangered Species Centre (HESC) and the Southern African Wildlife College (SAWC) to assist with our valuable work.
Joanne’s sister, Cathryn Devenish, donated various Hike4Rhinos promotional items to HESC, which can be purchased from our curio shop. All the proceeds will be donated towards the Hike4Rhinos initiative.
