A non-profit organization contributing to the conservation of the Serengeti ecosystem for future generations
As pristine parts of the world continue to shrink in the face of rapid population growth, the Grumeti Fund – in conjunction with our Tanzanian partners – is actively involved in preserving 350,000 acres of previously neglected Serengeti wilderness. Through active conservation management, collaboration with local communities, technological innovations and the deployment of well-trained boots-on-the-ground, we are affecting tangible change and sustainable results.
“The success of the Grumeti Fund will ensure that the long-term ecological function of the Serengeti ecosystem is maintained and protected, whilst presenting new livelihood opportunities to local communities through the development of a functioning nature-based tourism economy.”
The Grumeti Fund depends on the generosity of donors to help us carry out our conservation and community programs. Your contribution will help enhance the ongoing protection of this crucial part of the Serengeti ecosystem and provide essential support to the development aspirations of neighboring communities.
