Conservation Champions: What They Do
The Nairobi National Park Foundation is the lifeblood of the park, doing many things for conservation in Nairobi. Here’s a glimpse of some of the incredible work they do
Raising Funds: Last year, I had the incredible opportunity to be part of the NNPF’s fundraising campaign. The funds raised support everything from anti-poaching teams that protect the endangered black rhino conservation Kenya to park infrastructure maintenance. Find out how to help Nairobi National Park and support their cause by visiting our Support Us Page.
Animal Welfare: The foundation supports initiatives that ensure the well-being of the park’s inhabitants. This includes providing resources for veterinary care, wildlife monitoring programs and human-wildlife conflict.
Habitat Preservation: Preserving the Nairobi National Park ecosystem is key. The foundation supports projects on habitat preservation in Kenya such as controlling invasive plant species and restoring grazing lands in the savannah grasslands of Nairobi.
Endangered Species: The park is a rhino sanctuary and the foundation plays a big role in the rhino sanctuary Nairobi. Our support is critical for the intensive monitoring, security and breeding programs to increase the populations of black and white rhinos.
Engaging Local Communities: The foundation engages local communities through conservation education, programs and partnerships to build understanding and support for the park’s mission.
Why Your Support Counts: Investing in Our Natural World
Giving to the Nairobi National Park Foundation is investing in the future of this amazing natural space. Your donation helps:
Protect Nairobi National Park from threats like poaching and encroachment. This is a great cause that will increase the number of animals in Nairobi National Park.
Enhance conservation in Nairobi so the park remains a haven for its wildlife. This will also increase and diversify the animals you will see during a game drive.
Contribute to the bigger picture of wildlife conservation in Kenya, recognizing the park as a national asset. Many Kenyans are buying land, so we need to preserve areas like Nairobi National Park.
Save the biodiversity of Nairobi so many species in the park can survive.

About the Author
Hi there? My name is Ian Waruingi, a KPSGA-certified guide and tour consultant for AJ Kenya Safaris. I’ve been to Nairobi National Park more times than I can count, planned countless tours here, and witnessed unforgettable moments (like did you know wildebeests can walk within minutes of birth? That one caught me by surprise!).
I’ve also watched baby elephants at the orphanage slurp down bottles of milk, chase each other around in the dust, and melt the hearts of everyone watching.
These moments, big and small, are why I absolutely adore this park, and I can’t wait to help you experience it for yourself.
