During the 24-hour fundraising event called the Big Payback, The Elephant Sanctuary in Tennessee raised $103,564 from 981 unique donors -- making us the top-earning organization of nearly 900 participating Middle Tennessee nonprofits!
Considering this grand prize, plus bonus prizes for most "outside of Davidson County" donors on Wednesday evening and most donors for an animal welfare organization, earnings were over $110,000.
We are thrilled by how you showed up in a BIG way to support the big needs of our mission, which is providing lifetime care for these big creatures and educating the public on shaping a better world for elephants. THANK YOU!
