Renowned Scottish TV-presenter, Lorraine Kelly, has issued a public video appeal to help build a new penguin hospital in Cape Town, South Africa. The Southern African Foundation for the Conservation of Coastal Birds (SANCCOB), a non-profit seabird organisation, has started construction of its new seabird hospital but urgently need additional funds to complete the building. Kelly is urging the public to assist by contributing as much as possible through SANCCOB’s Donate-a-brick drive.
Go to [ Ссылка ] and donate a brick for just £3 (or $5/€4/R50).
The new seabird hospital will ensure that every seabird patient receives expert care and will include, among other things: two new Intensive Care Units; a three-part wash bay area to wash, rinse and dry oiled birds; a classroom for the centre’s growing educational outreach; a surgery; an X-ray room; pens; preparation areas; an aviary; three new pools; and a laboratory.
Whilst approximately two thirds of the total funds needed have been secured, SANCCOB still requires £260 000/R4,5 million/$340 000 to complete the new building. Help us build a better future for the endangered African penguin and other seabirds by donating a brick today at [ Ссылка ]
