Virunga National Park
Mission Statement
Virunga National Park, Africa’s most biodiverse protected area, exists to protect 1/3 of the world’s endangered mountain gorillas, over one thousand species of mammal, bird, reptile, and amphibian, and provide a brighter future to more than four million people affected by conflict.
Why Donate to Virunga National Park?
This Bag Season, Virunga National Park is raising funds to restore the Ishasha Valley, one of the most biodiverse and threatened landscapes on the planet. According to studies, its large mammal populations have declined dramatically over the last 25 years. Poaching, habitat destruction, and proximity to armed conflict zones have all hampered conservation efforts in the region, with large mammals such as lions, elephants, and hippos paying the highest price.
Crypto donations will help to strengthen the area’s critical infrastructure by making Ranger operations energy independent. The establishment of a new solar farm and electric transportation will boost anti-poaching efforts and allow for more effective monitoring of wildlife in the valley.
