Together We Can Make Amazing Progress!

Africa's wildlife is disappearing at an alarming pace. Commercial poaching, snaring and habitat destruction are leading to more human/wildlife conflicts and deadly encounters. Endangered species, such as elephants, rhinos, cheetahs, leopards, pangolins, giraffes and lions, have lost over 90% of their habitat and species in the last century. They are in danger of disappearing altogether.

Help us reverse these trends by making a donation on GivingTuesday (November 28, 2023). GivingTuesday is an opportunity for people around the world to use their individual power of generosity to support their communities and make a positive change in the lives of others.

See how your generosity will help protect the future of endangered wildlife and the communities they impact.

Your yearly membership goes toward planting trees with our partner One Tree Planted

We plant one tree for every new member who signs up for a paid membership with us (as little as $5 a month makes a difference!) We do this to further our mission of creating a healthy and biodiverse planet and to support the wonderful work of OneTreePlanted. The trees will be planted in the Albertine Rift region in Uganda to support and connect chimpanzee habitat, as well as benefit the local communities nearby for a positive environmental and social impact.

We’ve funded a multitude of programs in the past four years and you can see some of them on our Projects page. Nicci Wright’s pangolin rehabilitation program including surgical costs, re-release tagging expenses with state of the art telemetry tracking equipment for their safe monitoring. Cheetah, rhino and elephant relocations for programs ranging from repopulation to over population! We’ve funded medical, travel, equipment and supplies for frontline veterinarians. Educational experiences for children in Africa to witness a rhino dehorning and understand why it’s sadly needed and why their precious wildlife has to be protected for Africa’s ecology and prosperity.

We’ve built a school creche for young children in a Zululand community so their parents can go out to work. We purchased boots and much needed supplies for anti-poaching rangers in Kwa-ZuluNatal. We purchased 12 bicycles for anti-poaching rangers in the northern most regions of South Africa’s Kruger Park.

In Kenya we funded a water tower and monthly water supply for rangers in a remote part of Kenya where elephants migrate to give birth. We’ve provided food, shelter and medical supplies for rhino and hippo orphans and aided in their recovery.

Our giving is two fold - protecting and defending Africa’s vulnerable wildlife, and supporting the surrounding communities impacted by this wildlife. If you donate monthly, you automatically become a member of our Over and Above family and receive regular updates and a video of each finalized project!

We also welcome and appreciate one-time donations because all contributions are crucial to this crisis. All hands on deck!

We are implementing short and long-term strategies to prepare for and mitigate the social and economic impact of COVID-19 on wildlife. Despite these very challenging times, our mission, core values, and vision for our partners in Africa is unwavering.

We are a 501 (c)(3) tax-exempt, Public, non-profit in the United States.
