The Safe Water for Schools programme provides water filters through its partner Vestergaard (LifeStraw) to remote schools where access to clean water is limited and difficult. Ensuring clean water is one of the most effective ways to improve students' health and living conditions. The programme introduces a sustainable and non-invasive method by installing community filters that can transform contaminated water into safe water, eliminating at least 99.99% of bacteria, viruses and protozoan parasites. Each system can purify up to 100,000 litres of water, enough to serve a school for three to five years, without the use of chemicals, electricity or batteries.
Thanks to this initiative, AKP has ensured access to safe drinking water for 45,000 children in schools bordering the Serengeti. The distance of the schools makes it impossible to visit the camps directly, but the programme's impact on students' health and education is significant and long-lasting.
Sanctuary Kichakani Serengeti Camp is a luxurious mobile camp located in the heart of Serengeti National Park, Tanzania. This camp offers a unique safari experience, combining the comfort of high-quality accommodations with the excitement of being immersed in the wilderness. One of the distinguishing features of Sanctuary Kichakani is its mobility: the camp is moved between two locations, in the north and south of the Serengeti, to follow the Great Migration of wildebeest and zebra . This allows guests to always be in the best positions to observe this extraordinary natural phenomenon.
The camp features luxurious tents that combine traditional African elements with modern comforts. Each tent has private facilities, including a shower and flush toilets, a comfortable bed and elegant furnishings that create a refined atmosphere. The name "Kichakani" means "in the savannah" in the Swahili language, and it is in this environment that guests can enjoy safaris led by experienced local rangers, participating in morning and evening game drives. These excursions offer the chance to spot the Big Five (lions, elephants, buffalo, leopards, and rhinos), as well as numerous other wildlife species.
In the evening, guests can gather around the traditional campfire, swap stories under the starry sky, and listen to passionate guides share their knowledge about wildlife encounters and local legends. Sanctuary Kichakani also offers opportunities to meet and interact with local Maasai communities, allowing guests to learn more about their culture, traditions and way of life. The camp is committed to sustainability and conservation, operating with minimal environmental impact and using eco-friendly practices. In addition, the camp contributes to local conservation projects, supporting environmental and wildlife protection.
Guests can enjoy gourmet meals prepared with fresh, local ingredients, with dinner often served under the stars, creating a unique and atmospheric dining experience in the heart of the Serengeti. The Kichakani is an ideal choice for those seeking a safari experience that combines luxury with direct contact with the wilderness.
