Wilderness Trust

A non-profit organisation dedicated to raising and disbursing funds for conservation and development in Africa.

Born from a need to do more

Ways to Contribute

Donors have the choice to contribute to general funds, a particular Impact category (Educate; Empower; Protect), or even a specific project. Since our US-based fundraising partner, Empowers Africa, charges only nominal administration costs, and the Wilderness Trust does not charge any fees at all, donors are assured their monies are being spent completely on their chosen component.
