When a passion for animals and nature begins in childhood and lasts a lifetime, it can inspire meaningful action. That is certainly true for June Chastain of South Carolina, whose commitment to wildlife and the environment has remained strong for 87 years. What inspired her? From day one, June has loved animals and the natural world. Growing up, she was surrounded by family pets and has shared her life with dogs ever since. Today, she cares for four dogs, including her elderly Husky, Rebel. Her compassion for animals also led her to embrace a vegetarian lifestyle. Why does she support AWF? A dedicated supporter for more than 17 years, June trusts AWF because she knows the organization is authentic and truly passionate about conservation. Though she has never visited Africa, she believes, “You do not have to be exposed to something to care about it.” By including AWF in her will, June hopes to help protect wildlife for generations to come because, as she says, caring for wildlife keeps our planet vibrant, alive, and well.
Like June, you can help ensure wildlife and wild landscapes endure for future generations. A gift in your will costs nothing today and can create a lasting legacy for Africa's wildlife tomorrow.
