Donating in the United States
The African Parks Foundation of America (APFA) connects generous individuals and institutions in the United States with one of the world’s most impactful conservation efforts. As the U.S. affiliate of African Parks, we support the protection and long-term management of 23 national parks across 13 countries in Africa, helping to conserve biodiversity, support local communities, and secure the future of some of the planet’s most threatened landscapes.
We exist to serve our supporters—those who care deeply about the future of Africa’s wild places and the people who depend on them. Through fundraising, education, and partnership, we help turn passion into action and ensure that every contribution has lasting impact.
