FACTS AND FIGURES
As of the end of 2009, Children in the Wilderness has hosted 3 013 children in seven Southern African countries, changing their lives dramatically and positively. As the programme has been rolled out to all the regions in which Wilderness Safaris operates, so its contribution has become greater. Children in the Wilderness hosted 431 children in 2009 and is determined to increase this number in 2010. Countries such as Botswana, Namibia and Malawi host just under 100 children per year with smaller numbers being hosted in South Africa, Zambia, Seychelles and Zimbabwe annually or biennially.
