Our Partners
SCF is blessed with the loyal and generous support of a growing number of people and institutions keen to share their commitment and resources for the conservation of Saharan wildlife. This support comes in many forms, all of it valuable and all of it appreciated. Partnership and the grassroots support it engenders allows us to achieve ambitious goals, implement projects and sustain conservation action. Without it, none of this would be possible.
Core supporters
SCF could not survive without the institutional support and the funds it receives for salaries, operating costs, project development and duty travel. For their generosity, we are extremely grateful to the following organizations for their donations in 2006 and 2007.

SCF is particularly grateful to the Smithsonian’s Conservation & Research Center at Front Royal, Virginia, for hosting us during our critical first year, and to our current host and partner, Saint Louis Zoo in Missouri.

It also provides generous administrative and technical support through a dedicated center in its WildCare Institute.
Project donors & partners
The names of all our project donors and partners can be found on the appropriate web
pages. Their contributions, commitment and dedication are what is turning the tide of
extinction facing so many of the Sahara's threatened species. SCF salutes their generosity.
"The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena,
whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who
strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and
again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming,
but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions,
who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best,
knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who,
at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly,
so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls
who knew neither victory nor defeat."
Theodore Roosevelt
