Over 20 years ago, a small and dedicated group of tourism professionals began working together to fight poaching in and around the South Luangwa National Park. The Luangwa Conservation and Community Fund (LCCF), initiated by Andy Hogg of The Bushcamp Company in 2011, provided funding early on, enabling CSL operations to grow and leverage further funding for anti-poaching work.

Now well established with 11 members who each commit to donating per night per guest throughout the year, CSL works hand-in-hand with LCCF members to protect the Luangwa Valley’s unique wildlife and ecosystems. The funds donated by members of the LCCF are not restricted to specific projects or expenses, giving CSL invaluable flexibility to grow, adapt and respond to changing conditions each year.

Every year, LCCF members collectively donate over $170,000 to CSL’s work. Thank you Mfuwe Lodge and The Bushcamp Company, Camp Sabali, Chiawa Safaris, Flatdogs Camp, Gavin Opie Safaris, Kafunta Safaris, Lion Camp, Remote Africa Safaris, Robin Pope Safaris, Shenton Safaris, and Time + Tide.
