Join AMARULA CREAM LIQUEUR in Saving the African Elephants

Amarula, the best-selling South African cream liqueur, announced today the start of their new awareness and fundraising campaign in the U.S. to save the African Elephant. In partnership with the renowned conservation group, WildlifeDIRECT, they launched a new campaign titled “Don’t Let Them Disappear.” The global campaign aims to raise awareness to the ongoing struggle to protect the world’s declining African elephant population. The cornerstone of the campaign is a fundraising initiative whereby $1 from every bottle of Amarula sold in the U.S. between September 1, 2017 and December 31, 2017, will go directly to WildlifeDIRECT’s impactful global conservation efforts.

“There are only approximately 400,000 African elephants left in the world, and one is lost every 15 minutes to poachers. We need help spreading the word about the plight of our elephants,” says Dr. Kahumbu, CEO of WildlifeDIRECT. “This campaign is a critical component to our global conservation efforts, and the funds raised through Amarula’s help with truly make a difference.“

The global initiative by Amarula continues the company’s consistent efforts since 2002 to help save the African elephants. Launched in 1983, Amarula is known worldwide, and today, has a retail presence in 100 countries, accumulating numerous awards across the globe.

The African elephant plays a crucial and symbolic role in the creation and spirit of the celebrated cream liqueur. Once a year, elephants begin their journey to feast on the sun-ripened fruit of the Marula trees, which grow wild and free across the subequatorial plains of Africa. This signifies to local communities the fruit is ready to be hand-harvested and ultimately turned into Amarula.

Amarula is available worldwide, with national distribution at a retail price of $23.99
