By looking at just the names only, the first organization that caught my eye was: Wild Spots Foundation. I liked the name and decided to see what they were all about. Turns out that Wild Spot is a recent non-profit foundation that was officially organized 6 years ago in March of 2002 by none other than our textbook’s author Dr. Barry Barker. Although I don’t own any pets or animals I am a true animal lover at heart, thus this organization would be perfect for me because they “work towards preserving endangered and threatened species (and their habitats) through different venues such as science, education, technology and visual arts” (Wild Spot Foundation, 2008). It has always been one of my goals to participant in such a cause/project and also I would love to learn about and see these beautiful creatures up close and personal.
Another factor about Wild Spots that stood out to me is their use of the word Biodiversity. I feel that this word is like a mascot for this group, it represents all the varieties that exist among us on earth. The people that take part in organization are all from a different walk of life; they come from different countries and speak different languages but when together you can still see the similarities in all of them. Just like the different animals/species that Wild Spots helps, they are all different but they share that common bond of extinction or endangered.
Lastly, this foundation does quite a lot of traveling to very exotic and beautiful places all over the world. From Panda Preservations in China to the Safaris of Kenya, this organization gets around. I also applaud the other two foundations as well they are also making big and wonderful strides for our environment.
