Established in 1977, the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust (SWT) is a global leader in elephant conservation. Its pioneering Orphans’ Project — the world’s first and most successful program of its kind to rescue, rehabilitate, and reintegrate orphaned African elephants, rhinos, and other creatures into the wild — has earned international acclaim. SWT’s broader conservation mission encompasses extensive aerial, field, and community support initiatives that protect wildlife and preserve vital habitats across Kenya.
