A Provident Gift From Debswana To Mokolodi

Monday, March 19, 2007

Mokolodi Nature Reserve has received a P1 million shot in the arm from Debswana Diamond Company. The funds are for the payment of the facility's replacement of its electric fence.

Speaking at the presentation of the donation Friday, former president Sir Ketumile Masire said Debswana has been a leading donor to Mokolodi since its inception in 1991. Sir Ketumile is the chairman of the Mokolodi Board of Trustees.

The gesture has since set off a process that has seen the establishment of Mokolodi as an environmental education centre with a full range of wildlife, including rhino, giraffe and elephant. Debswana has been a member of the facility's board of trustees from the beginning.
