Adopt a Reteti Elephant

for a donation of US$50 a year

By adopting an orphaned or abandoned elephant, you will be supporting Reteti Elephant Sanctuary in the rehabilitation and release of these elephants.

The sanctuary is a community driven movement that is growing new economies, transforming lives and conserving natural resources and would not be able to do it without your support.

Dear wonderful foster parents! Thanks to your feedback, we’re excited to announce that our adoptions are now recurring donations of $50 per year!
This means zero renewal stress or worries. You have complete flexibility to cancel, change or even pick a new elephant to foster at the end of your 12-month subscription.

What is included in your adoption?

  • A digital, sharable Adoption Certificate - making your foster parent-hood official!

  • A Social Media Starter Pack, with videos and photos which you can use to share the news about becoming a #RetetiFosterParent

  • Quarterly email updates about your foster elephant

  • Updated exclusive online photo album

Important note:

By joining the Reteti Adoption Program, you will play a vital role in the life of an orphaned baby elephant, so that one day they can be released back to the landscape and join a wild herd once again. Multiple adoptions of individual elephants enable us to cover the costs of caring for all 40 elephants at Reteti; your contribution will help us cover the cost of milk, the keepers, veterinary cost and other essentials your elephant needs.

Do you have any questions?

Please refer to our FAQs for more information on the Adoption Program. However, if there is any specific question that is not on the FAQs page, feel free to mail us at hello@reteti.org and we will do our best to assist you.

Ashe oleng!
