Прочтите текст об опыте Келли в качестве волонтера и выберите правильный ответ. I had always been interested in doing volunteer work, so when I learned about an opportunity
that would let me do my part for wildlife and travel to one of the most beautiful countries on the
planet, I thought, "Why not?".
Two years ago, I had been working for a large advertising firm in the UK. I liked my job so
when I was first made redundant I was very upset. Then I realised that it was propably one of the best
thing that could have ever happened to me.
A month or so before I had found myself out of a job, I had been told about a volunteer project
which was concerned about elephant conservation in Kenya. According to my source, what was
needed was someone with a background in advertising who could promote awareness of a large
elephant sanctuary in Africa. It would be my job to attract visitors, and their money, to the sanctuary. I
had the right credentials and so a very short time later, I found myself living and volunteering my
skills in Africa.
For those of you who don't know, it is a very sad fact that the number of African elephants has
reduced by almost half since the 1980s. As you know, they are huge creatures and they need very
large areas of land in which to roam and find food to feed themselves and their young. What this
means is that elephants often come into contact with humans who view elephants as a threat to their
lives and livelihoods.
The Mwaluganje Elephant Sanctuary, where I was to be staying, was established in an attempt
to do two things. First, to offer the elephants a haven away from illegal hunting, and second, to try and
change the negative attitude held by the locals towards elephants. In what came as a pleasant surprise
to myself, and the sanctuary's organisers, over 200 families volunteered to turn over their land to be
used as a habitat for elephants.
What this pleasant turn of events meant was that many elephants had had their lives saved. It
also meant that the locals could now earn a living, not by killing the elephants for their ivory, but by
managing the sanctuary and earning money from the tourism that the sanctuary attracted.
Over a year has passed since I came to Kenya and the sanctuary and the elephants are
flourishing. For my part, all I can say is that it makes me incredibly proud that the volunteer work
done by myself and hundreds of others has resulted in a place where the greatest beast on earth can
live and roam safely and freely.
