FEATURED CHILDREN'S PHILANTHROPY
AFRICAN WILDLIFE FOUNDATION
The African Wildlife Foundation, together with the people of Africa, works to ensure the wildlife and wild lands of Africa will endure forever.
ADOPT AN ANIMAL
Your child can send in $25 to adopt one of the animals in the African continent. He or she gets back a stuffed replica and information about the animal. Check out bios of specific animals, like Loli, on the AWF site.
Loli is a mature female leopard with two cubs. When AWF researchers first saw Loli, she was living in an area of northern Kenya called Samburu, where she was keeping her cubs hidden from other predators while she hunted for their food at night.
