Making a Difference for Rhinos
At Rhinory Foundation, our passion for rhinos runs deep. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with a singular focus: to protect and conserve all five rhino species. Inspired by the pioneering model of our namesake, Rhinory, a winery and rhino sanctuary nestled in the Texas Hill Country, we believe that businesses have a vital role to play in conservation.
We are driven by the belief that collaboration is key to lasting impact. We partner with leading conservation organizations, community leaders, and passionate individuals around the globe to implement strategic initiatives that address the complex challenges facing rhinos today.

Our Partners in Conservation
We believe that collaboration is the key to achieving lasting impact. We are proud to partner with leading organizations around the globe that share our passion for rhino conservation. In 2025, we are focusing our support on two extraordinary organizations: Care for Wild Rhino Sanctuary and the International Rhino Foundation.
Care for Wild
Care for Wild, located in South Africa, is the largest rhino orphanage in the world. This incredible organization provides expert care and rehabilitation to orphaned and injured rhinos, giving them a second chance at life.
