Imagine a world where all children are healthy, safe and learning.
Become a Community Champion with AfriKids and help an entire community achieve this for their children.
What is a Community Champion?
Community Champions team up with a community in one of the world’s hardest to reach places in northern Ghana.
Over the next three years,you will enable the community to ensure all their children are healthy, safe and in school – today and in the future. For less than £42 per child (INDIRECT NUMBER).
You can fly to Ghana to visit the community and you will receive regular updates about the impact you are making to children’s lives.

We’re helping protect habitats and improve connections between fragmented areas where elephants live. We're working with governments and local communities to reduce conflict between people and elephants. And we’re influencing policy and legislation to benefit elephant conservation.
We're working with TRAFFIC, the wildlife trade monitoring network, to help train law enforcement agencies and lobby governments to improve laws on wildlife crime, including the illegal elephant trade.
- protect habitats and restore degraded biological corridors
- train and equip anti-poaching patrols
- work with local communities to monitor elephant movement and reduce human-elephant conflict
- fund our other essential work around the world
