Giving Tuesday is our most important day of the year. Every donation received today helps fund our ambitious conservation initiatives across Kenya, laying vital foundations for the generations of elephants who depend on our support.

Today, you have the power to double your impact: Thanks to our generous philanthropic partners, all qualified donations and adoptions made on Giving Tuesday will be matched, up to $800,000 USD.

At Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, we don't merely respond to the moment — we are building for generations to come. Conservation work that truly lasts requires infrastructure and expertise, but also vision and the willingness to tackle challenges at a scale that matches the landscapes we protect.Now in our 48th year of operations, our dedicated, long-term approach to Kenya's wildlife and wild spaces defines who we are. We build brick by proverbial brick upon foundations that were laid nearly half a century ago, always prepared to pivot and adapt to answer the needs of the moment, while also forging ahead with a conservation framework that will see us into the future.

The greatest threats facing Kenya's wildlife today are habitat loss and human-wildlife conflict — inextricably linked and increasingly complex. That is why we think creatively and ambitiously, tackling challenges at landscape scale.

All our field conservation projects operate through the lens of coexistence. Every single day, our teams work across Kenya to secure vulnerable habitats, support local communities, mitigate human-wildlife conflict, and help animals in need. From launching new mobile vet units that double our emergency response capacity, to undertaking major fenceline projects that protect both wildlife and communities, to building water infrastructure that will serve wildlife for decades — we are investing in solutions that endure.

By donating today, you empower us to enhance our conservation capabilities across Kenya — helping to ensure no orphan goes unrescued, no emergency unanswered, and no habitat unprotected. Your support funds every vehicle that reaches a remote rescue site, every aircraft that patrols thousands of acres in a single day, every fence post that secures a habitat, every liter of water delivered to thirsty wildlife.

Together, we are building foundations that will endure — for the wildlife we serve, for the landscapes we protect, and for the generations to come.
