In their words:
WildlifeDirect is a Kenya and US registered charitable organization founded and chaired by African conservationist Dr Richard Leakey, who is credited with putting an end to the elephant slaughter in Kenya in the 1980s. Its main office is located in Nairobi, Kenya. WildlifeDirect was established in 2006 to provide support to conservationists in Africa directly on the ground via the use of blogs, which enables anybody, anywhere to play a direct and interactive role in the survival of some of the world’s most precious species. WildlifeDirect does not take funds on behalf of bloggers, instead we enable all our bloggers to link their blogs to fund raising sites. No administration fee is charged for this. By allowing bloggers to raise funds directly through this website, we ensure that all donations go directly to where it was intended in its entirety. WildlifeDirect however still needs to raise funds for our own operational costs. We invite donors to make a contribution to help run the organization.
