Could you be a Bat Hero this Halloween?

Halloween is a great time to get batty, have fun and support African bat conservation. We’ve put together a Halloween-themed fundraising pack to provide you with information, ideas, and resources to help you host an event and raise funds to support bat conservation. 

​Bats are vital for maintaining healthy ecosystems as pollinators, seed dispersers, and insect controllers. Your efforts will help protect these amazing creatures.

Your fundraising efforts will help support applied research, conservation action, and education programmes, such as:

• Providing training to help new bat groups develop across southern Africa
• Setting up a fruit bat monitoring programme
• Supporting early career researchers and conservationists at the start of their careers to develop skills and confidence in conservation

Embrace the spooky season by hosting a Halloween-themed event to raise funds for Bats without Borders.

Why Fundraise for Bats without Borders 
Bats are an incredibly important, and much misunderstood, group of mammals that are vulnerable to human impacts. They are a critical species in the ecosystems in which they live - controlling insect pests, pollinating plants and dispersing seeds.
​
Sadly, Africa is considered a bat conservation void and bats are largely unprotected outside of protected areas. Habitat loss, land degradation and persecution are major threats to bat populations.

Every single cent and penny raised makes a difference to bats... we’re on the ground conserving, engaging and inspiring people across southern Africa.
