Each elephant’s journey to sanctuary is unique, just as their journey once they arrive is their own. At some point, you likely followed an elephant’s path here and perhaps saw them step out of the transport container on their own time. Or maybe there is an elephant who has captured your heart or who you feel a connection with, whether you can understand why or not. No matter how you discovered Global Sanctuary for Elephants and the beautiful girls who live here, you undoubtedly understand the key principles we live by as caregivers, including offering vast space, opportunities for companionship (if they want it), and an emotionally stimulating environment, among other elements. 

One of the most important things we speak of is choice; giving elephants the freedom to choose their paths gives them back power that was once taken from them. At sanctuary, they can make the decision to explore wide spaces or to graze in one spot all day; they can spend time sharing space with friends or take walks on their own. There is no substitute for the ability to select your pathway to healing. That is why this month, we have partnered with FLOAT once again to offer this colorful shirt bearing the phrase, “Sanctuary, where they choose the journey.” We personally connect to this saying and think it ties back beautifully to the lives we try to provide the elephants at Elephant Sanctuary Brazil. 

If you are looking for a holiday gift for yourself or another animal-loving friend, this may be the perfect choice for you. The design comes in a number of different shades and styles, including t-shirts, tank tops, long-sleeved shirts, and hoodies, and features a colorful image and phrase on the front. As always, GSE receives $8 from the purchase of each shirt.

P.S.: This is a very limited time offer. Shirts will be available for purchase only through Monday, October 31st at 9am. Orders will be printed and mailed once sales close. FLOAT ships internationally, too, so everyone should have plenty of time to get their holiday gifts purchased ahead of time (and that’s always a good feeling).
