The Big Payback, Tamy’s fundraiser, is now live!! From Wednesday at 6:00pm CST until Thursday at 6:00pm CST, you have 24-hours to donate towards building a male elephant habitat – starting with a $50,000 match (double your donation) and possibilities for Global Sanctuary For Elephants to win cash bonuses for the highest number of people who give.
Although we are writing a short post to go with the video, it shows much more than words ever could. Most of you support sanctuary for elephants because you see how it transforms every elephant that comes through the gates. While we share their stories, it is their faces, bodies, expressions, and joy that show how life-changing sanctuary is. There is not a single elephant here who resembles the version of themselves before rescue.
Many of you have helped give the gift of haven and healing to the wonderful female elephants of Elephant Sanctuary Brazil. Now it’s time for Tamy and other males to have the same opportunity for freedom. Please give if you can – every dollar adds up to something beautiful. Whether you have the ability to give or not, please share. Every new member of our sanctuary family makes the elephants’ lives better and educates others about the reality of a life of captivity. Please also like/love or comment on this post, even if it’s just something short or simple. The more interactions with this post, the further it gets on Facebook and it may reach those who support sanctuary, but don’t know about Tamy and his fundraiser.
Because of all of you, seven elephants have already graced this land and our lives, with several more to come. Now it’s time to build for the boys.

May 5, 2021 at 8:54 pmI’m loving that we are building for Tamy whose only touchstone is his relationship with his daughter and her mother at Mendoza Zoo. We all hope that he can be reunited with them soon, and begin a life of his own where he decides. I can hardly wait to see his life unfold and blossom in nature. As you wrote recently male elephants are thought to be natural loners but it the wild they aren’t and they often have male friends and their groups, so I also look forward to the day when there are other male elephants there. BRAVO!
Sara says
May 5, 2021 at 9:20 pmWe look forward to that day, too. Thanks for your support of sanctuary.

May 5, 2021 at 9:12 pmI love this more than I could ever say. In this world Elephant sanctuary gives so many the gift of hope. I’m so happy to be able to help in some small way. Thank you for giving the boys a chance at sanctuary too. It’s truly everything for these elephants and is so precious to all of us who care so much about them.

May 5, 2021 at 10:31 pmWill giving through PayPal count towards the fundraising goal?
Kat Blais says
May 5, 2021 at 10:45 pmIt will count towards the goal, but won’t be listed on the Big Payback totals or count towards their bonuses. We will add in the totals tomorrow morning, and at the end. And all of it will go towards building Tamy’s habitat.
