chiara@yondifoundation.co.nzWe wish to express our sincere thanks to the Yondi Foundation for your most generous support of Orana Wildlife Park when we most needed it through the COVID lockdown. Orana was closed with no income, while the high costs associated with the care and welfare of our precious animals, many of which are endangered species, continued and could not be hibernated. We remain incredibly grateful to the Yondi Foundation for such amazing support that helped get the Park through such an uncertain and difficult time.

We would like to thank the Yondi Foundation most sincerely for the incredible support given to our family at a truly difficult time…. We wish you well in the future as you endeavor to continue the wonderful work you are doing.
