DART
CORPORATE CONSERVATION SUPPORT
They literally keep the wheels turning…..
DART is eternally indebted to the following corporations and organizations for the generous support they provide to assist the conservation of wildlife in Hwange National Park.
The support DART has received from Dr. James Thompson and his Turramurra Vet Hospital in Australia pre-dates all the other donors. On many of his trips to Zimbabwe, Dr Thompson would spend some time assisting DART on the ground. Then on his return to Australia he would continue to make regular personal donations and became an active fundraiser for DART.
Thanks to James’s enthusiastic support and ongoing fundraising work DART has been able to rescue, monitor and protect countless wild animals over the years.
As a tourist on his first visit to Zimbabwe in the late 1990’s Andy fell in love with the wildlife of Hwange and has been a regular visitor ever since.
In addition to sharing some very close encounters and unforgettable wildlife capture experiences with him, DART will be forever grateful to Andy for the immense physical, financial and material contributions he’s made to DART in his personal capacity over the years that helped to keep DART operational and got us through some very lean and difficult times.
For his friendship, commitment and generous personal contributions, DART will be forever grateful to Andy Huyton.
In June 2020 Mr. Brian Courtenayof the Southern African Conservation Trust (SACT) and a small consortium of donors approached DART with a kind offer to support the DART/ Ukhozi Snare Removal Team.
More recently the SACT generously sponsored the Ukhozi Team to become members of the the Game Ranger’s Association of Africa (GRAA). This thoughtful gesture has ensured the well-being of the Ukhozi Team members and their families through the provision of adequate medical insurance cover in the event of accident, injury or death.
Because their fieldwork can involve close interactions with aggressive poachers, dangerous wild animals and poisonous snakes, this GRAA medical insurance cover is greatly appreciated by the men of the DART/Ukhozi Team.
