Wild Philanthropy is a charitable foundation designed to protect at-risk ecosystems and support vulnerable communities in Africa.
Vision: People and wildlife prosper in Africa’s wilderness as a result of benefiting from economic opportunities that sustainable tourism provides.
Mission: To protect at-risk ecosystems in Africa by supporting and enabling local communities to realise the value of conservation through tourism.
Approach: Finding and supporting organisations to partner with, Wild Philanthropy supports a range of projects at different funding levels. Strategic and opportunistic in our approach, we work to support key landscapes with multiorganisational and high impact projects, using travel and philanthropy to drive much-needed finance into conservation and community development. For more, see our approach.
Ways of working: We identify and support the missions and projects of organisations on the ground in Africa. Support is almost always financial, via funds raised from individuals and private and public organisations. A full 100% of donations we receive are passed on directly as grants to projects on the ground.
If you’d like to help us support Africa, its people, its wildlife and its wildernesses, then please donate now. For more on who we have partnered with and what kind of projects we have supported between 2021 and 2023, see our latest impact report below.
