Sponsor an elephant
The Elephant Conservation Center (ECC) contributes to the conservation of the Asian elephant, an emblematic species worldwide. Currently, the ECC is the only company that provides international-standard welfare in Laos and actively encourages reproduction in elephants.
In order to help the Elephant Conservation Center carry on its work, we propose you to sponsor an elephant by making a donation of $60. You will then have access to our elephants’ video blog for one entire year. Videos are shot by our biologist team and uploaded regularly so that you will keep an eye on their social life!
Sponsored Elephants
Elephants registered in the Sponsoring programme live at the Elephant Conservation Center. They are either pregnant females, mothers with their babies, injured or sick elephants undertaking treatment, or old animals enjoying a peaceful and well deserved retirement. All these elephants are cared for by the Center’s biologist and veterinary team.
