SAFARI ON THE RIVER 2026

May 16, 2026 Sacramento Zoo

Join Africa Hope Fund for our signature fundraising event

 

Africa Hope Fund is hosting our signature fundraising event once again at the Sacramento zoo, and we want YOU to be apart of the celebration!

We have been dedicated to transforming communities in Zambia by supporting both wildlife conservation and education. Through our network of six literacy centers and libraries, we provide daily English reading, writing, and speech instruction to over 2,500 children, while also employing local villagers as reading assistants. These programs empower youth and adults with vital skills for the future. At the same time, we partner with leading conservation organizations to protect endangered wildlife and their habitats, ensuring a healthy, sustainable future for the people and animals of Zambia.

This event presents exciting sponsorship opportunities for individuals and businesses eager to make an impact. Sponsors enjoy special recognition and exclusive engagement with our mission and community. Don't miss your chance to be part of this unforgettable evening and to help build brighter futures through literacy and conservation. We look forward to seeing you there!
