Donations made in previous years are still being put to good use. In 2019, AES supported the purchase of this vehicle for Chiang Mai University Center for Elephant and Wildlife Health that acts as a Mobile Vet Clinic, allowing veterinarians to get to remote areas of Northern Thailand. This vehicle travels through rough conditions so that doctors can attend to their elephant patients. It was a critical tool during the COVID pandemic and a prime example of how we put your contributions to work for the elephants of Asia.

The “EleBus” in Sri Lanka is another example of a long-term investment paying off for the people and elephants of Asia. This bus not only serves as transport for children, to and from school, but also for many other community members needing to travel through elephant migration corridors. AES helped fund the initial purchase of the bus and in 2023 the required repairs and maintenance to keep it on the road and mitigating human-elephant conflict.

Investing in educational opportunities for mahouts and veterinarians across Asia is an important way to meet the vision of our organization to put knowledge, skills and resources in the hands of our partners in Asia. Knowledge developed at workshops, skills built with hands-on training and resources to be able to continue delivering the best care for elephants are achieved thanks to the generosity of our donors.
