Akorn Philanthropy

A deep-rooted concern for responsible travel infuses each and every Akorn-organised journey. For more than 25 years, we have worked passionately to ensure that the people and wildlife whose lands we visit continue to survive and coexist successfully.

From the first project in 1982 to raise funds for conservation efforts in Kenya’s Masai Mara, to more recently providing essential assistance to the people of Myanmar’s Irrawaddy Delta after the area was devastated by Cyclone Nargis – Akorn is committed to supporting social and environmental projects on a global scale.

With offices in over 25 countries, we are able to work in conjunction with local experts to actively sponsor proven grassroots projects that benefit local communities and habitats, as well as offer Akorn agents and their clients the opportunity to become involved in these efforts.
