African Parks, the MF Jebsen Conservation Foundation and RM Sotheby’s are coming together at Abu Dhabi Grand Prix on 30 November 2019 to raise funds and awareness through the auction of a very special Aston Martin One-77.  

All proceeds from this Auction4Wildlife initiative of MF Jebsen Conservation Foundation will benefit the African Parks portfolio of 16 parks, managed in partnership with governments and local communities. African Parks is pioneering a public-private partnership model to unlock the potential and long-term viability of Africa’s iconic landscapes and immense biodiversity.

Auction4Wildlife now provides a way for luxury items such as cars, art, jewelry and wine to convert into real value for the conservation of Africa's wildlife and communities. This auction is just the beginning.

We invite you to join us at the Grand Prix track or virtually and help us protect the things we love – things that go fast! To learn more about Auction4Wildlife and to receive updates about this initiative, please contact: Vega Hall-Martin Embree on [email protected].

Thanks to the generosity of Markus Jebsen, RM Sotheby’s will offer a 2011 Aston Martin One-77 at the auction house’s first-ever auction in the Middle East, held in partnership with Formula 1® on 30 November 2019. 

Seldom-seen at auction, the 2011 Aston Martin One-77, is the most exclusive Aston Martin model of the modern era. As the model name suggests, just 77 examples of the One-77 were built, with the car on offer in Abu Dhabi being the 38th.

All proceeds from the sale of the One-77 will benefit African Parks.

Auction4Wildlife is an initiative by the MF Jebsen Nature Conservation Foundation that seeks to conserve the world’s wildlife by selecting the best conservation organizations and helping them to raise much-needed funds through charitable auction donations. Markus Jebsen, chairman of MF Jebsen Nature Conservation Foundation, has kindly donated the One-77 from his private supercar collection for this inaugural auction.
