As a registered UK charity the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust is able to accept donations, which will be used to support the Trust’s work in Kenya. The UK Charity receives no government funding for its work and is wholly dependent on the generosity of supporters to undertake crucial animal protection and wildlife conversation projects in Kenya.

If you are resident in the UK and wish to make a donation please choose the option below that best suits you.  And if you are a UK taxpayer, please remember to Gift Aid it – this will make every £1 you donate worth an extra 28p to the Trust, at no extra cost to you!
