SUMMARY
Due to perception poaching is being solved and therefore elephants are saved from extinction, David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust's donations dropped significantly. It sought to reignite passion to save elephants by bringing to life their hidden humanity and creating awareness about the human-conflict threat. Hello in Elephant is a world first human-elephant translator – part utility, part donation generator. Launched on World Elephant Day, this idea changed the conversation and people’s connection with a well-worn cause. It went global garnering 400m impressions and USD$6.53m in earned media. Importantly donations rose 34%.
