Thanks to your generous donations, Asian Elephant Support recently contributed funds to provide new workwear and uniforms for the mahouts and staff of the Aceh Conservation Response Unit (CRU) in Sumatra, Indonesia.
These uniforms are important to those who work with ongoing health and welfare programs as well as those working on conservation efforts - improving the morale of the CRU mahouts and staff and giving them pride in their work. Additionally these uniforms took into consideration requests from the CRU staff to have gear that could withstand the environmental conditions of regular patrols throughout the year.Thank you to our field partner, Komunitas Untuk Hutan Sumatera, for helping us deliver the uniforms to CRU Aceh staff! We are proud to support the work of these partners in the field, who strive every day to protect wild populations of elephants and other threatened or endangered species and provide for those elephants in their care.
