Fueling Sustainable Human Impact & Conservation in Africa

Our Mission at ACCF

Our mission is to contribute to the preservation of important African wilderness areas, as well as to empower the communities living alongside these spaces, contributing to a world in which people and wildlife live together, sustainably, forever. To do this, we work with distinguished nonprofit funds and trusts carrying out impactful conservation and community projects in Africa. By assisting them through raising awareness and funding, ACCF provides support for these important initiatives.

ACCF is a public charity exempt from Federal income taxation under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  Once partnerships are established and programs are identified for ACCF support, ACCF participates in budget deliberations for those programs and regularly monitors the programs’ progress through constant communication with its partner organizations and review of such organizations’ substantive and financial reports regarding the programs to ensure the successful use of its donors’ contributions.
