For many years, Friends of Hwange Trust has been working to provide water for wildlife in Hwange National Park. This amazing conservation haven has no surface water in the dry winter months from April to November, so water must be pumped from underground sources to surface waterholes so that animals can drink. Although we have almost completed the project of converting the pumps from diesel engines to ecofriendly sustainable energy solar units, there is ongoing need for funds to maintain these as well as safeguard the Park and its wildlife.
Other work that FOH is involved in includes road maintenance, fire-breaks, animal rescue as well as supplying medication to the Clinics and assisting adjacent communities with water supplies to schools and clinics.
This year to help raise much needed funds we are holding a cycle ride within the Park. An intrepid group of cyclists will be taking part in this fun event. It starts on 23rd May and participants will ride for 4 days camping in the Park along the way!
Please support this worthy cause by making a donation.
A huge thank you from FOH, the animals and people of Hwange National Park.
