Turn your hobby into a lifeline for elephants.  Do you like to blog, write songs, create graphics, videos or give presentations?  Maybe you like to make crafts or sew…. Whatever it is, use your talent to help save elephants!  Here are some ideas:

1. Join a local animal activist group.  If one hasn’t been established create it using the this guide.  
2. Regularly search for and attend local animal rights protests!  Boots on the group is essential!
3. Create a social media profile or page dedicated to raising awareness.
4. Create a free blog dedicated to elephants using WordPress or Google Sites .
5. Tell your friends and family about the plights faced by elephants.

7. Use your videography skills to make an educational You-Tube or Vimeo video.
8. Regularly browse and sign petitions on Care2.com.
