The community we serve is at the heart of everything we do. Through conservation, our members receive monthly lease payments for their land, providing a stable and dignified source of income. Beyond lease payments, conservation-driven tourism creates additional livelihood opportunities across various sectors, strengthening household resilience and local economic growth. By working closely with the community, we promote a balanced relationship between human needs and environmental sustainability. However, sustaining these benefits requires continued investment in wildlife protection, community programs, and conservation infrastructure. Donor support plays a vital role in strengthening these efforts ensuring that conservation continues to deliver tangible, long-term benefits for both people and wildlife.
