Our Work

African Community & Conservation Foundation (ACCF) is a project sponsored by Friends of Peace Parks, Inc. (FPP), founded with the purpose of preserving Africa’s wildlife by raising awareness and funding for key conservation projects and transformative community programs carried out in Africa. FPP is a United States public charity exempt from Federal Income taxation under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue code of 1986, as amended.

Funds raised by the ACCF support impactful and transformational community development and conservation projects like those carried out by the Grumeti Fund in Tanzania.

Community Outreach

The communities surrounding protected wildlife areas in Africa are key stakeholders in conservation. The work that we support aims to help communities to thrive both socially and economically while living in harmony with the surrounding wilderness areas.

Anti-Poaching

Wildlife is under constant threat of poaching for commercial bushmeat, habitat encroachment, charcoal extraction and the illegal trade of wildlife contraband such as ivory and rhino horn. To combat these ecosystem threats we support anti-poaching efforts that combine cutting-edge technology with boots on the ground.

Conservation

Conservation management encompasses an array of activities, from treating wounded wildlife to managing fires and removing invasive alien plants in order to allow the landscape and its flora and fauna to flourish. ACCF supports projects ranging from managing wild fires and reducing the impact of invasive alien plants to the re-introduction of locally extinct animal species.
