Adopt
a baby elephant

By adopting a Reteti orphan from $5 or more per month, you'll support us in the rehabilitation and release of these wonderful wild animals.

Welcome to the Reteti Adoption Program

Adopting a Reteti orphan will contribute to…

  • Feeding Reteti’s orphaned wildlife
    with nourishing milk from the Milk to Market Program

  • The Keepers
    and their 24/7 expert care and endless love for the orphans

  • Veterinary care
    ensuring the orphans are healthy and strong from rescue to release

  • Their release
    and their journey back to the wild in Northern Kenya

What is included in your adoption?

  • A digital, sharable Adoption Certificate - making your foster parent-hood official! (Emailed to you or your gift recipient after the purchase!)

  • Regularly updated, exclusive online album with photos, behind the scenes stories, and videos of Naisimari

  • Regular email and video updates about your elephant (SMS updates too for those of you in the USA!) 

  • Automatic membership to "The Herd" - our monthly donor club that gets you invites to our livestreams, updates from the Reteti team, and more!

PLEASE NOTE

We are a US-based 5013C and therefore your monthly donation is 100% tax deductible for customers in the USA. Additionally, multiple adoptions of individual orphans enable us to cover the costs of caring for all the orphans at Reteti. Your contribution will help us cover the cost of milk, the keepers, veterinary cost and other essentials your your orphan needs.

Which Reteti elephant is your soul twin?

Take the quiz and find out.

Here at the sanctuary, no two elephants are alike. Some tackle new experiences like born leaders, while others observe quietly, thinking deeply. A few are shy, staying close to their trusted keepers, and then there are those who roam with wild abandon – greeting every bird and tree with wide-eyed wonder. Just like people, elephants feel deeply and express themselves in beautifully different ways. One may be playful and bold, while their best friend is gentle and reflective.

And each one has a story worth sharing... From the dreamers to the explorers to the philosophers, these extraordinary beings teach us more than we can ever say.

This quiz is a fun way to meet the personalities behind the trunks, but also stirs a spark of connection and a reminder of who you really are.

Find your kindred spirit in the Reteti herd.

Take the quiz!

We are a community-driven movement that is growing new economies, transforming lives, and conserving natural resources.

We would not be able to do any of our work without your support. Ashe oleng (thank you)!
