With great dedication, the Vaquita Friends of Vienna once again organized a successful fundraising campaign to support vaquita conservation, thereby supporting the work of YAQU PACHA. As part of the Grätzelfest in Vienna, Hannah and the Vaquita Friends informed numerous visitors about the dramatic situation facing the vaquita —the world’s most endangered marine mammal.
Thanks to a lovingly designed information booth, numerous conversations, and a successful muffin sale, a total of 1,000 euros was raised for the protection of the vaquita. The informational materials and posters provided by YAQU PACHA drew a great deal of attention and made the booth a real highlight of the event.
It was particularly encouraging to see the great interest shown by so many people who, for the first time, took a closer look at the conservation of the vaquita and the threats it faces in the Upper Gulf of California. Initiatives like these powerfully demonstrate how important the support of dedicated individuals is for international species conservation.
YAQU PACHA would like to extend its heartfelt thanks to Hannah, the Vaquita Friends of Vienna, and all supporters for their extraordinary dedication and valuable assistance in protecting the vaquita. Every initiative, every awareness-raising effort, and every donation helps to keep hope alive for the last remaining vaquitas.
