Kruger National Park is one of Africa’s oldest and largest conservation areas, protecting over 2 300 000 ha. Protecting a rich tapestry of diverse ecosystems, Kruger is home to South Africa’s largest protected elephant, lion, buffalo, hippo and crocodile populations.
Wild Impact has been active in 23 villages within four tribal authorities in the Greater Kruger landscape since 1996. Operating in two nodes within the region: in the north adjacent to &Beyond Ngala and Manyeleti, and in the south adjacent to the Sabi Sand Nature Reserve.
Our partner communities are economically challenged, with limited social infrastructure, poor education outcomes, high unemployment and limited economic activity. Over the past 30 years it has been our privilege to support over 100 education and health projects, assist hundreds of school leavers with the opportunity of higher education, provide thousands of scholars with an environmental education experience, and support food and water security through our Climate Resilient Communities programme and Hippo Water Rollers project.
