Remember to enter Insimbi’s Run For a Cause
The Insimbi Legacy Projects, an NPO focusing on conservation, is reminding avid runners and animal lovers to participate in its Run For a Cause – Help a Ranger – Save a Rhino virtual event.
Participants from all over the country can enter the virtual race at www.insimbilegacyprojects.co.za to run, walk, jog or cycle for five or 10km from any chosen location.
Insimbi’s virtual race is part of a series that will be held monthly to raise funds for rhino fodder and the anti-poaching unit. Entry fees are R100.
The idea was conceived by local businesswoman and ambassador of the Insimbi Legacy Projects Sharon Janse van Rensburg after the hard lockdown had a dire impact on the organisation’s finances.
“This event is a fun way to keep you motivated, fit and healthy. It also allows you, friends and family to take part in contributing and protecting our rhinos. It’s also a good way to create an awareness of protecting rhinos for the future generation,” said the ambassador.
Carmela Lattanzi started the Insimbi Legacy Projects to involve the public in the fight against poaching after one of her widely admired rhinos, Insimbi, was killed in 2014.
