WHAT ARE WE DOING TO HELP?
Fundraising
We are currently planning our next fundraising event in Atlanta, GA. We promise it will be fun, and as always, 100% of the funds collected will directly impact the wellbeing of endangered elephants.
Tsavo Water Bowser Project
Our current project is focused on purchasing a waterbowser (a 1000 liter water tank perched on a sturdy four-wheel-drive truck) to transport water to drought stricken areas throughout the Tsavo National Park where young elephants are on the brink of survival due to lack of rainfall.
Tsavo Anti-Poaching Teams
No war can be won without forces on the ground. Our fundraisers will equip anti-poaching teams in the Tsavo National Wildlife Park with vehicles, helicopters, drones, fuel, and other supplies. These teams work with the Kenya Wildlife Service to arrest poachers, remove snare traps, as well as assist injured and orphaned animals left behind.
Esupetai Water Well Project
Thank you for making the Esupetai water well a success. Your contribution will enhance the quality of life of the region for 65 years.

Fundraiser Progress
Founded in 2010, The WellBeing Foundation is a community of caring and committed volunteers. We work together to raise money and put it to use for the benefit of all life on Earth. When we learned of the Maasais' struggle to find drinking water in Esupetai, Kenya, we built a well to sustain the local Maasai for 65 years. Now that the people are taken care of, we are fighting for the survival of the endangered elephants in the Tsavo National Park of Kenya. Although our focus will change, our mission remains the same - to create well-being for the whole world. Come back to see the status of our projects, and know exactly what difference your donation is making for the world!

Family Is Precious
As a mother holds her child in her arms, cuddling him lovingly, she can tell how small, fragile, and defenseless he is – his little body as well as his innocent mind. The most horrifying thought for a mother is to lose her child, or for her child to be orphaned. Alone, a young child[…]
A Day In The Life
I had a farm in Kenya … at the time I lived there it was a rural place known as the “bush”. There was a rule in the bush every one knew, “Day is for people; night is for animals”. When the sun went down at about 7 every night, we finished our tea on[…]
