Queen Elizabeth Conservation Club

Elizabeth Queen National Park is Uganda's most popular tourist destination, it was founded in 1952 as Kazing National Park, and two years later after the visit of Queen Elizabeth II it was renamed its current name. In the area of ​​1978 square kilometers, almost 100 species of mammals and over 600 species of birds live. It's a home for lions, leopards, African buffaloes, Ugandan kobas, great mercy for hippos, warthogs, Nile crocodiles, African elephants, chimpanzees and many other animals and birds. The park stretches from Lake Georg in the northeast to Lake Edward in the southwest and includes the Kazing Channel connecting these two lakes. The richness of nature, picturesque landscapes, savanna stretching to the horizon passing into the bush and then further out of the park into the impenetrable jungle is fascinating. The enormity of wild animals is amazing. All this gives the impression of a wonderful, wonderful land not affected by any problems. Unfortunately this is not the case. Uganda, like most African countries, is facing many economic and economic problems. Uganda is one of the African countries with the highest levels of unemployment. This is due to, inter alia, a low level of education. Teaching and acquiring education, especially by the village inhabitants, is one of the most important needs and the most difficult challenge to accomplish.

These people are doomed to practically only themselves and their own initiative.

One goal connected us ...

Faith, willingness to help and the desire for a better life for their relatives and other inhabitants of the village gave four friends the idea of ​​establishing the organization "Queen Elizabeth Conservation Club". Four young people: Alphonse, Richard, Josious and Honest, born and raised in different villages in the southwestern part of the country, where none of them had an easy life. Education was difficult to achieve for everyone and almost impossible to get. With the help of various friends, four friends slowly gained successive stages of education at different levels. Each of them has acquired different skills whenever possible. Alphonse is a hotel waiter, Richard a tourist guide, Josious village guide, and Honest a teacher. The main initiator of the organization is Alphonse, who, when starting work at Topi Lodge in Queen Elizabeth National Park, noticed the problems of residents of the neighboring village of Kazinga. He noticed that the heart of the problems is the multigenerational lack of education. He contacted Josiouse, a village guide who knew the village very well. Both of them were perfectly aware that the key to a better life is development towards education of the inhabitants. They sought help from Richard, who, being a tourist guide, has contacts with people coming to Uganda for tourist purposes and willing to help. However, all this was still not enough, and here Honest came to the rescue. Honest is a teacher and she has the necessary knowledge about education. The organization was founded in 2018 and was registered in 2020. Established to help fight problems affecting children in the village. The premise is to help today's kids so that they can become valuable parents in the future.
