Lewa relies on income from tourists visiting the Conservancy
and donations from individuals, companies and foundations.
Conservation on the scale in operation at Lewa does not come
cheap. Without the generosity and vision of our past and present
supporters, Lewa would not be what it is today. Without future
donor funding Lewa cannot continue to operate.

There are five tourism operations based on Lewa;
· Lewa Safari Camp
· Lewa House
· Kifaru (a small house)
· Lewa Wilderness (book through Bush Homes )
· Sirikoi
the operators pay a fee per client, which goes towards Lewa's running expenses
but the scale and importance of the work is such that this
will never cover all our costs.

details of some of our future and present needs, please visit
