SUPPORTING THE LEWA WILDLIFE CONSERVANCY

Founded in 1995, the not-for-profit Lewa Wildlife Conservancy spans 62,000 acres and serves as a catalyst for conservation across northern Kenya. Lewa holds 12% of Kenya’s black rhino population and the largest single population of Grevy’s zebras in the world. Through the protection and management of endangered species, the initiation and support of community conservation and development programmes, and the education of neighbouring areas in the value of wildlife, Lewa has become Kenya's leading model for wildlife conservation on private land, leading destination for low-impact conservation tourism, and leading catalyst for conservation, and its direct benefits for communities, across the region.

One of Lewa’s fundamental objectives is to conserve threatened species within its area of operation and provide protected habitat for other species under pressure outside of the Conservancy. Lewa promotes conservation both within its boundaries and in the ecologically important community-owned areas to its North. LWC also provides support to anti-poaching operations in other private rhino sanctuaries and wildlife reserves in Laikipia District and on Mt. Kenya.

We invite you to join us and to support the work of a dedicated group of people from different backgrounds and cultures, to improve lives and to give children a future whilst ensuring that Africa’s precious wildlife has a long-term home and a voice. To find out more about Lewa and how you can help please visit our website at www.lewa.org.
