Mission
Fostering sustainable human wildlife co-existence through empowering community-focused education and mentoring the next generation of conservation storytellers. In 2023 we created two African lion conservation programs. One in Uganda and one in Tanzania. These educational programs are targeted toward underserved rural communities who can obtain direct financial benefits from better co-existence with lions. Our programs help foster that knowledge and reduce human wildlife conflict.
