Partner with Virunga National Park

CHARITY OF THE YEAR

Does your organization’s CSR strategy include a Charity of the Year nomination? Choosing the Virunga Foundation is a great way to unite staff behind an inspiring cause, create lasting impact in Eastern DRC, and increase employee engagement.

By partnering with Virunga, you’ll join us in celebrating a century of conservation and community empowerment in Africa’s oldest protected area. As the Park turns 100, there’s no better time to help us safeguard its rich biodiversity, including one third of the world’s mountain gorillas. Your support will ensure the continued protection of this UNESCO World Heritage Site and support local communities in building a green economy in North Kivu.

Whether you’re looking for places at challenge events, volunteering opportunities, or fundraising ideas, together we can create a bespoke plan that inspires and educates your workforce while making an impact on the success of conservation and sustainable development projects.
