Friends of Parks (FoP)
This should be an exciting new way where volunteers and nature enthusiasts can contribute to improving parks in Namibia. So watch this space as it develops.
The Friends of Parks Society will be made up of institutional, corporate, and personal members throughout Namibia and perhaps even the rest of the world. The Society will be an organization of concerned citizens who want to and are able to support the national protected area network in Namibia. Members will have the opportunity and the outlet through which to volunteer their time in order to help secure the long-term success of the parks in any way possible. Possibilities for involvement include: in kind donation of special skills (for instance a carpenter could volunteer to help build or rebuild a lodge in a park), volunteers to help create and run environmental and cultural education programs, volunteers to help with routine maintenance in parks (especially in terms of maintaining walking trail), and, of course, financial donations.
