PROJECT RHINO KZN

The concerted aim to support the conservation of the rhino has taken many forms.

Through their organisation Pink Panthers, Carla Geyser and Bronwyn Laing are energetically involved in projects to try help save the Rhino. They are embarking on a rally called the Put Foot Rally where Project Rhino is one of the charities.

At a Fundraiser last week at Primi Polo, they were able to raise R50,000 for Project Rhinos and Put Foot Foundation. The next fundraiser is on May 11 at Beach Bums. Titled Rocking the Rhinos, it features live music from the Cape Town band, Me and Mr Brown. Tickets R100 available directly from Beach Bums on 032 943 1132 or contact Carla Geyser on 082 800 0828. Booking is essential as seating is limited:
