Owner of Okambara
Dear guests, friends and family,
As many of you may have noticed already, a devastating bush fire reached Okambara in the first week of September. The whole farm with all its grass burned down. Our animals need your help as soon as possible. In order to bridge the loss of food until the begin of the rainy season, 50,000 € are needed to buy the minimum amount of feed needed for our animals to survive.
Thankfully, all people and animals could be saved and no one was harmed by the fire. We were also able to save the lodge and all other buildings with great effort. However, the consequences of this fire are more devastating than ever before. The fire turned 15000 hectares, the entire pasture of our farm into ashes and dust. All the food recourses have been absorbed overnight. The fire has penetrated every single corner of the area.
