- NSEFU implements anti-poaching initiatives for the purposes of stabilizing local communities. We are a lean and focused foundation with a main objective of "putting poachers out of business." We do this by providing education and resources that give local people alternative and sustainable livelihoods and choices other than participating in wildlife crime.
- NSEFU is based in the South Luangwa Valley in Eastern Zambia with an office in San Diego, California, USA. We strive to educate the local citizens on the benefits of protecting their natural resources, enlist their help in wildlife law enforcement, and establish income-generating trades from which they are able to support their families and villages.
- NSEFU endeavors to work together with local authorities and park rangers to combat to poaching activities and protect vulnerable areas as well as aid in the prosecution of poachers.
- NSEFU is transparent in our activities.
- NSEFU endeavors to aid authorities in the acquisition of resources required to help rangers combat poaching. Every day we patrol, snare-sweep, provide medical attention to vulnerable animals, and protect animals from poaching.
