Championing underrepresented conservationists throughout Africa
Dear ReWilder,
ReWild is producing a new documentary series called “Protectors”, which shares the stories of underrepresented conservationists who are dedicating their lives to protecting or restoring ecosystems throughout Africa. We’re crowdfunding to release our pilot episode “Dressing the Princess”, which explores the link between social and environmental justice through following the first successful community conservation initiative in the entire city of Cape Town and we would love for you to join us in making this film a reality.
See our crowdfunding video below:
Cape Town is experiencing a higher rate of species extinction than any city on Earth. “Dressing the Princess” shares the journey of two young urban conservationists as they fight to restore their city through restoring the dignity of marginalised communities by reconnecting them to their land.
Through creating this film, our mission is to:
Inspire and equip political leaders to invest in supporting local community driven restoration efforts around the world through screening this film at intergovernmental climate events such as COP27
"Dressing the Princess" will also be used as a tool to help mobilise more young “citizen scientists” from Cape Town to participate in the ecological restoration of Princess Vlei.
If you’re interested in joining our campaign, there are plenty of ways to be involved.
For example, in return for contributing $25, you will help to plant 10 seeds of native plants at Princess Vlei (we’ll even send you a photo of your seed plot)! We have already hit 30% of our target through corporate sponsors, and now we invite the ReWilders to get involved if you would like to join our project.

If you’re unable to support us monetarily, that's okay! Here's what you can do instead:
"Follow" the campaign on Seed&Spark! Once we hit 250 "followers," regardless of how many people pledge, we'll start unlocking creator discounts for this and future projects.
Share the upcoming posts from ReWild’s Instagram and LinkedIn on your social media
Share the campaign with anyone in your network who you feel would be excited about this film series.
This is ReWild’s first independent documentary series and we couldn’t be more excited about the results from production so far - we can’t wait for you to see the finished product.
We hope you’ll join us in launching this series! 👩🏽🌾🐾
Wild regards,
Team ReWild Africa
