Reposted from @olpejeta 🌟🌟 KICHECHE; THE CONSERVANCY GUARDIANS 🌟🌟 Tourism has been the core of our income for so many years and we have forged an invaluable relationship with our tourism partners on Ol Pejeta. Kicheche is one of those partnerships that we cherish. Their 12-bed tented camp on Ol Pejeta – @kicheche_laikipia - is an eco-award-winning camp in the shadows of Mount Kenya at the foot of an indigenous forest overlooking a waterhole. 🦏⛰🌍 Today, we would like to say a massive thank you and show our appreciation to @kicheche_safari_camps and @kichechecommunitytrust . 25% of Kicheche’s turnover goes into wildlife conservation, securing habitat and management of conservancies, including Ol Pejeta. Kicheche also donates $5 per bed night to contribute to improved health and education facilities in neighbouring communities. 👩🏾🏫🩺 In 2020, Kicheche made a very significant donation to Ol Pejeta through their “Conservancy Guardians“ appeal to assist us with ranger salaries, welfare and medical, predator monitoring and patrol costs. Their support over this past year has made a huge difference to the work that we do at Ol Pejeta Conservancy. Kicheche and our communities are working tirelessly on a plan for the next year, to ensure our conservancy remains secure and intact despite the dramatic drop in tourist arrivals.🥰🥰 If you’d like to know more about Kicheche Laikipia Camp, please visit LINKIN.BIO in our LinkTree. 🙏🏾 #conservancyguardian #conservationheroes #partner #tourism #education #conservation #olpejeta #laikipia #guardian #community #kicheche https://www.instagram.com/p/CMh5cyIByV9/?igshid=1a2gc5dpj2s60
