Partners • Institutional Collaboration
Invest in
Lasting Change.
We partner with foundations, CSR programmes, NGOs and institutional donors to scale conservation and community impact across the Mara ecosystem.
Why Partner With Us
Built to be funded.
The project is designed from the start around what institutional funders need: measurable objectives, transparent governance and the capacity to scale.
01
SDG Alignment
Every programme maps to named UN Sustainable Development Goals, so your reporting to boards and regulators is direct rather than reconstructed.
02
Audit-Ready Reporting
Financial systems are built for independent annual audit from day one, with quarterly impact summaries shared with funding partners.
03
Scalable Projects
Water points, nurseries, ranger housing and bursaries are designed as repeatable units: fund one, then fund ten.
Partnership Models
Four Ways to Work Together.
Each model comes with a written agreement, a named contact and a reporting schedule agreed before the first payment.
Foundation Grants
What you fund
Whole programmes or multi-year commitments: the women rangers’ housing, a conservancy nursery network, or the acoustic monitoring layer.
What you get
Programme-level reporting against agreed indicators, annual audited accounts and a seat at the planning table.
Corporate CSR
What you fund
Named, visible projects that match a corporate goal: carbon and restoration, water, education or gender equity.
What you get
Photography and stories for your own reporting, staff engagement options and recognition in the annual report.
Technical Collaborations
What you fund
Expertise and equipment rather than cash: monitoring technology, veterinary capacity, GIS and data systems.
What you get
Field deployment of your tools with honest feedback, joint case studies and co-authored results.
NGO Alliances
What you fund
Shared programmes with organisations already working in the Mara on wildlife, livelihoods or climate.
What you get
Pooled resources, one community-facing voice and a wider reach than either partner alone.
Global Framework
The Goals We Deliver Against.
Six UN Sustainable Development Goals map directly to the four pillars. Partner reporting uses these as its spine.

Rhino protection and habitat restoration across the Mara.

SDG
Climate Action
Indigenous reforestation with verified carbon sequestration as the objective.
5
SDG
Gender Equality
A dedicated intake of women rangers with housing and maternity support.
6
SDG
Clean Water
Solar-powered water points for communities and livestock.
4
SDG
Quality Education
Bursaries for the children of rangers and conservancy families.
1
SDG
No Poverty
Livelihood resilience through cooperatives and conservation employment.
How It Works
From First Call to First Report.
A partnership usually takes a few weeks to set up. Nothing is signed before both sides know exactly what will be delivered and how it will be reported.
01
Conversation
A call to understand your goals, constraints and timeline, and to say honestly where we fit.
02
Proposal
A short written proposal: objectives, budget, indicators, reporting schedule and the SDGs it serves.
03
Agreement
A signed agreement with a named contact on each side and payment tied to milestones.
04
Reporting
Quarterly summaries, an annual audited account and a field visit by arrangement.
