Support Our Wildlife Warriors Kids HQ
In January, we officially moved into our Wildlife Warriors Field lab, a 30-acre piece of wilderness south of Nairobi Park. This land was generously given to WildlifeDirect for educational purposes.
Support the Wildlife Warriors Kids Field Headquarters
As you plan your spring cleaning, go through your stores and look at all the stuff you’ve not used in ages, AND DO NOT NEED ANYMORE, please consider us for a donation. We are setting up a field camp for kids to give them a chance to learn outdoorsmanship, camp life, citizen science, etc. We have a lovely large mess tent and we will be putting it up this weekend in the bush just south of Nairobi. This will be the base for all our Wildlife Warrior Kids activities going forwards.
Tribute for Dr. Richard Leakey
When Richard Leakey started the Kenya Wildlife Service he ignited a new approach to conservation in Kenya. He created a proud visionary organization led by Africans that sought to provide excellence in conservation that had never been seen before. Indeed the institution has gone on to become globally recognized and a source of many of Kenyan top conservationists.
Giving Tuesday: Today is a great day to give
For this Giving Tuesday, on 30th November, please consider WildlifeDirect as you join millions of people around the world to show up, give back, and change the future of wildlife tomorrow.
Nurturing Nature Positive Schools
One of our most exciting and fulfilling programs at WildlifeDirect is education and outreach. Children across Kenya join our Wildlife Warriors Kids Clubs for place-based learning in their schools and communities.
