The Kevin Richardson Foundations aims to preserve habitat and garner protection and awareness for Africa's most iconic specie, the lion. The lion is under threat and scientists predict that by 2050, there will be no lions remaining in the wild. This blindspot in conservation is a challenge because of the total systemic complexity in which the lion exists. Our foundation seeks to address this issue from all angles through: 1. Buying up large tracts of land to preserve in perpetuity for lions and thus other wildlife species 2. Educate and empower rural communities living on the fringes of wildlife habitats so as to show meaningful benefit to conserving the wildlife surrounding them. Through providing opportunities for nature sensitization (especially for students) and respond to the immediate needs of these communities, we hope to help break the destructive habits of poaching and the bush meat trade. 3. Collaborate with a wide range of like minded individuals - we welcome scientists, artists, students, house moms, influencers, anyone with a passion for conserving the lion and other species, to come together to creatively pool our talent and resources to find innovative ways to address issues such as captive lion breeding, canned hunting and cub petting and help bring an end to these barbaric practices. historically we have worked with closely with scientists, especially those of the University of Pretoria's Wildlife Management Programme in their Carnivore studies to help provide more data on protecting big cats and improving their care when in captive situations or undergoing translocation. 4. Protect and maintain the Kevin Richardson wildlife sanctuary which is home to 40 predators rescued from the captive breeding and canned hunting industry. These animals deserve a safe and enriched lifelong home.

Wadadee cares Conception: Mission & Vision Wadadee Cares is a non-profit organisation supporting charitable institutions in Windhoek, Namibia, in the location of Katutura. Our projects are primarily focused on benefiting orphans and vulnerable children, to ensure a better future not only for the children but also for Namibia at large. Our goal is to finance the basic daily needs for these children in different local Namibian institutions, such as children homes, shelters, pre-primary schools, kindergartes, day care institutions and soupkitchens. This guarantees a healthy nutrition and medical care, which are basics for a regular daily life, as well as safety and security, housing and warmth and care. Additionally, Wadadee cares focuses on ensuring sustainable investment in the children and their environment to give them education, health and security for their future. Future-oriented support is particularly important in the field of education, as we at Wadadee believe that education is the greatest equalizer and would break any future cycle of poverty, unemployment and diseases. We are trying to comply with the principles of sustainable development aid in our work in Namibia by not keeping our (partner) projects at the expense of the people of Namibia or future generations. Our mission requires social development that is ecologically compatible, socially fair and economically efficient.
Seva Mandir's mission is to make real the idea of society consisting of free and equal citizens who are able to come together and solve the problems that affect them in their particular contexts. The commitment is to work for a paradigm of development and governance that is democratic and polyarchic. Seva Mandir seeks to institutionalise the idea that development and governance is not only to be left to the State and its formal bodies like the legislature and the bureaucracy, but that citizens and their associations should engage separately and jointly with the State. The mission briefly, is to construct the conditions in which citizens of plural backgrounds and perspectives can come together and deliberate on how they can work to benefit and empower the least advantaged in society.
