Our Story

Rangers are Africa’s unsung heroes. They hold diverse roles as conservationists, teachers, community support workers, leaders and much more.

The Wildlife Ranger Challenge, organised by Tusk, is a celebration of solidarity, connection and camaraderie for the ranger profession. Culminating on 21st September 2024, the campaign raises vital funds for Africa's biodiversity guardians.

Tashinga Initiative aims to secure wildlife habitats, protect wildlife
and empower rangers in ZimParks’ biodiverse-rich Zambezi Valley’s
Protected Areas, Zimbabwe, also contributing towards climate
change action through responsible, strategic and maintained
conservation interventions for these areas.

Give today and the Scheinberg Relief Fund will match every dollar donated, amplifying your impact. Join us in speaking up #ForWildlifeRangers

Undertaking the Trial 21km for upcoming Wildlife Ranger Challenge half-marathon on the 21st September allows our Tashinga Initiative teams to go through all the steps required to achieve all the aspects of the challenge, especially the digital requirements have to be achieved! The latter is no easy thing with scarce and very expensive internet! Here is Team Charara about to start the trial in Kariba-Charara! Look at the rough terrain underfoot.
