Help us secure the fragile ecosystem for Flamingo, breeding grounds for the Great White, Pink backed Pelicans and other aquatic life. This will ensure the ecosystem is protected from destructive human activities such as diversion of river water at the catchment area, cultivating up to riverbeds, destruction of trees around the Riparian area etc.

Support us to put up a Research Centre where students can carry out research activities, have veterinary services to cater for sick and injured wildlife, monitor zoonotic diseases e.t.c.

Dear Valerie, Susan, Jenny, Jackie, Marion and Marvin,  Thank you for your donations. They are very much appreciated and we will utilize these funds to our best ability. We are very busy helping with the construction of the dispensary in Elmenteita and the school food programme is just getting going. We only have 63 guards to patrol the Conservancy protecting the people, wildlife and livestock on 48,000 acres. They work very hard long hours and still can’t cover this vast area. We can only operate one vehicle with our limited funds.  Every penny you donate is going to help the Conservancy fulfill its mission and we thank you for your contributions. Kathryn Combes – Director
