MISSION
THE MARA NAPA DIFFERENCE
Mara Napa Camps & Conservation Center is the first destination resort in the Maasai Mara to channel ALL of its profits back into the community.
​
In 2018, the idea for a safari camp that would solely benefit the people of the Mara, was born. The vision was to create a small camp, conservation center, and conference facility that would generate an income stream for sustaining local programs benefiting and empowering the community.
​
Mara Napa Camps and Conservation Center, guided by a community run trust, ensures this local support. Through educational and entrepreneurial programs, on-the-job training, and employment at MNC, community members develop self-reliance that is sustainable. MNC assists with road maintenance, flood control, school building upgrades, medical, scholarships, and other needs as they present themselves.
​
Income from Mara Napa Camps and Conservation Center, as well as outside donations, directly benefit the local population, Mara wildlife conservation efforts, cultural preservation, and community projects.
​
NO money ever leaves the Mara.
