Help a high school or college student travel to South Africa to participate in an Original Wisdom adventure of a lifetime. Original Wisdom provides international adventure education programs in wildlife tracking, ecology, and human culture.

 

In 2017, Brandon Willis joined students from New Albany High School, Ohio, for a trip to South Africa with Original Wisdom.

 

He traveled as a member of a high school class titled “Wildlife Tracking, Digital Photography and Robotic Applications.” Brandon was already an accomplished photographer before he joined us for the trip. He dove into the robotics piece with great enthusiasm and became known for his Monitor robot which he used to approach and photograph a white rhino in the bush.

 

Brandon left us all too soon but his passion for wildlife, photography and his love of South Africa resulted in his family creating this scholarship fund in his memory.

 

One hundred percent of donation proceeds made in his name are set aside to help provide for a high school or college student to travel to South Africa to participate in an Original Wisdom program.
