Tusk Trust is a dynamic organisation, which has over 15 years experience initiating and funding conservation and community development programmes right across Africa.

Supported by UK celebrities such as Rory Bremner, Ronnie Wood, Griff Rhys Jones, Joanna Lumley, Zoe Ball, Ben Fogle and Alistair McGowan, the charity's work to deliver direct sustainable conservation has been widely covered on television and in the media.

In December 2005 HRH Prince William chose Tusk as one of just two charities to which he is granting his Royal Patronage.

Tusk's current portfolio of 25 field projects spread across 12 countries is designed not only to protect wildlife, particularly endangered species, but also to encourage poverty alleviation and sustainable development amongst many poor rural communities who co-exist with wildlife. The charity however contributes substantial funds towards the protection of many threatened species such as Elephant, Rhino, Cheetah, Chimpanzee, Mountain Gorilla, African Wild Dog, and even marine species such as the Turtle and Dugongs.
