Sustainability in Action

We are committed to positive and transformative impact. Here are some ways they do it at andBeyond Ngala Tented Camp.

Protecting Wildlife
The Ngala Private Game Reserve was created in the early 1990s as the result of a three-way partnership between andBeyond, the World Wildlife Fund, and South African National Parks – the first instance of a private game preserve being incorporated into the famed Kruger National Park. Since its establishment, the reserve has paved the way for further concessions in the park. andBeyond now leases reserve land from WWF and donates a portion of its revenue to the SANParks Trust, with funds used to expand smaller national parks within South Africa.
Access to Resources
Water access continues to be an ongoing issue faced by Africans in rural communities, with women and children tasked with walking up to 1 kilometer each day to gather clean water. Aside from being physically demanding, this need often keeps kids from attending school. In collaboration with nonprofit partner Wild Impact, andBeyond has provided those in rural parts of Mpumalanga with barrel-shaped containers called hippo rollers to make water gathering quicker and easier. These rollers hold up to 90 liters of water and can be moved across the ground rather than carried.
Committing to the Community
In the 1990s, andBeyond and Wild Impact partnered to launch what has become one of its most popular initiatives, the Community Leaders Education Fund. This tertiary education program supports college-aged students in South Africa, Tanzania, Kenya, Botswana, and Namibia, providing scholarships in hopes of increasing both earning potential and job opportunities for those from rural communities. The initiative has already doled out more than 1,200 bursaries to those from 62 different African villages. Rather than paying the scholarships back, the students further aid the community with important service projects.
