Welcome back everyone! We hope you had a wonderful summer. We can’t wait to see you all again!
To kick off the 2022/23 season, we’ll hear from:
JGC member, Aglaia, recently interviewed a giraffe enthusiast and retired teacher from New York. Irene has collected so many giraffe items that she has a Guinness World Record certificate to prove it!
We’ll get an update on JGC members Rebecca and Rachel’s Classroom Africa fundraiser featuring Marlyn the giraffe. Marlyn was made with repurposed materials and is 16 feet tall! It was built to bring attention to giraffe conservation and to fundraise for environmental clubs at rural primary schools in Tanzania near Tsavo Park, which is a hotbed for giraffe poaching.
And, of course, we’ll learn more AMAZING giraffe facts, talk about our pen pal program in Tanzania and more!
We’re looking forward to a wonderful year ahead. Long live giraffes!!
