"Since 2017 iRostrum has supported the Real World Conservation Trust, a unique charity who work to raise awareness about the threats facing the world’s most iconic species and their habitats while also raising significant funds for nominated projects pivotal in the battle to protect them.

 

As official sponsors to their inaugural Explorers Against Extinction iRostrum provided them with their own branded and integrated online bidding platform where the 'Sketch for Survival' artworks were offered for sale. The iRostrum online auction platform enabled bidding on items anytime, anywhere and on any device, thus maximising its audience and fundraising potential. Their first event raised over £40,000 and donated to projects in Kenya and Botswana to help safeguard against animals’ extinction. The annual ‘Sketch for Survival’ auction has gone on to be a key fundraising event for the charity every year since."
