Sharing the profits – now this is serious

Last but definitely not least, we seek to redistribute some of the wealth the business creates to those people that need it most. We do this by donating 10% of our revenue each year to a foundation called Touch the Land. These guys implement rural community development projects in the countries featured on our website.

The foundation’s vision is to build sustainable futures for some of the poorest people in Africa. Currently our focus is on supporting rural communities dependent on subsistence agriculture because we believe it is the most effective way of bringing real change into the lives of families. It creates food security after the first season but more importantly, it also brings dignity as they are empowered to do something about their situation themselves. It is also the first step towards taking whole communities out of poverty permanently.

The best of all, when you use The Safari Co. website you are making a real difference! If that makes you feel good, that’s exactly what it’s suppose to do. It’s great to do this together.
