Feb 26, 2011/Casper , WY/ – Global Sporting Safaris, Inc. (GSS) is pleased to announce that the Casper, WY, Central Wyoming Chapter of the Mule Deer Foundation fund raising banquet raised over $1,500 for the MDF mission statement (preserving mule deer, black-tailed deer and their habit) through our hunting trip donation program. Their annual dinner event was held at the Parkway Plaza in Casper, Wyoming on February 26, 2011. Gloria Taylor chaired the event, and Scott Hampel, Mule Deer Foundation Regional Director, was on hand.
Global Sporting Safaris’ Katie Luthy of Sheridan, volunteered at the banquet and donated a big game hunting safari to the South Island of New Zealand.
“We have put together three high quality hunting donations that allows Global Sporting Safaris (GSS) to give back to the ‘not for profit’ organizations that help to promote our industry and our passion,” says Rick Kennerknecht, CEO of Global Sporting Safaris.
“As an active volunteer for several wildlife conservation groups and a chapter chairperson for the MDF, I can’t express how amazing it is to witness first-hand what our hunt donation program has accomplished. Since its inception this program has put well over $100,000 on the ground for wildlife and habitat conservation. It’s rewarding to be a part of a company that makes it a priority to help these organizations raise funds which are allocated to protect our hunting heritage,”says Katie Luthy, Global Sporting Safaris consultant.
Global Sporting Safaris has already helped raise over $17,000 for the Mule Deer Foundation in recent years. Hunt donations are still available for other MDF chapters across the nation.
Global Sporting Safaris (GSS) makes theses donations available to 501c3, 501c4 or 501c6 organizations and there are a limited number of hunting trips available each year. The outfitters in this fundraising program offer 5-Star accommodations, excellent hunting areas, professional staff, exquisite local cuisine and trophy quality animals. We have personally visited each outfitter to assure quality and a positive experience for our clients. Details can be found at www.gssafaris.com/fundraising
At the conclusion of the fundraising event, a GSS hunting consultant will be assigned to each auction winner. Our consultants will work with each winner to ensure that everything goes smoothly both before and after the hunt.
