Our goal is to promote climate ans envirinment sustainable education To date, we have successfully planted 10,000 trees in 50 schools located in Nakuru County, with an ambitious objective of planting 10 million trees by the year 2030.
We are also prominent champions of wildlife and environmental justice, employing legal strategies to protect our natural resources from pollution. Recently, we filed a legal petition and received a ruling from the High Court of Kenya - Environment and Land Division, which has put a stop to the county government's ongoing pollution of Lake Nakuru caused by the discharge of raw untreated sewage.
We have initiated a range of environmental conservation projects designed to mitigate the impact of ongoing droughts that have negatively affected wildlife. Our efforts involve drilling boreholes and setting up sustainable solar-powered water pumps, which serve both the wildlife and park rangers. Furthermore, we have introduced rainwater collection systems to provide essential support for wildlife during arid spells
Our efforts also prioritize the removal of invasive plant species at Lake Nakuru National Park, which pose a threat to the forage available for herbivores.
This initiative is carried out in collaboration with local volunteers from nearby communities, working alongside park wardens.
We focus on utilizing nature-based solutions and promoting ecosystem services to protect our natural habitats and wildlife. Our efforts include organizing regular park cleanups to remove plastic waste and conducting wildlife censuses. Additionally, we monitor the DC pulse of the electric fences to ensure that wildlife remains safely within the boundaries of Lake Nakuru National Park.
Our international volunteer program encompasses wildlife conservation, reforestation, and community education initiatives. This program presents a remarkable opportunity for individuals aged 16 and older who are enthusiastic about wildlife and nature conservation. It is particularly suited for students on a gap year, those pursuing internships, and anyone looking for a purposeful holiday that contributes positively to the rich wildlife and local communities of Africa and Kenya
