Conservation: A Legacy of Leopards
Donation protected
Landmark Foundation is a non government organisation facilitating the establishment and sustaining of conversation land uses in South Africa, and conservation of wildlife species, focusing on specific projects, such as the Leopard and Predator Project.
In addition, other projects include protected area expansion work, the shepherding back biodiversity project, waste recycling and renewable energy development.
The charity relies on private donations, grants and corporate funders in order to do this important work. Your donation will contribute to the rescue of leopards using GPS tracking collars, survey cameras, field work and educational materials.

There are an estimated 500 leopards left in the Western Cape, with 400 in the Eastern Cape, as a result of the use of snares and brutal gin traps, hunting, poaching and sadly, killing by farmers, as a means to protect livestock.
This calls for urgent management intervention and a stopping of leopard persecutions if we wish for this species to persist in the landscape.
The funds will go directly to the charity, specifically for the Leopard and Predator Project, aimed at rescuing leopards and ongoing education and research, preventing further extinction of African wildlife.
"Humanity can no longer stand in silence while our wildlife are being used, abused and exploited. It is time we stand together, to be the voice of the voiceless before it's too late.
EXTINCTION MEANS FOREVER."
We are doing the Inca Trail challenge to Machu Picchu in Peru,
(43km at maximum altitude 4225m/ 13 860ft), from 4 to 10 August 2018, to help raise funds from donations and sponsorship, raising awareness for this important conservation work.
Importantly, the trip is totally self-funded and 100% of the money raised will be donated to the charity. The funds will be transferred directly to the charity's bank account a month after completing the trek.
Whilst not working directly with the charity, the conservation of wildlife is something we all need to be involved in, and from which we, and future generations will benefit.
"Only when the last of the animal horns, tusks, skin and bones have been sold, will mankind realise that money can never buy back wildlife."
