Ol Pejeta Conservancy has announced a strategic partnership with Kenya Airways (KQ) in support of the year-long OPC@20 celebrations, marking two decades of dedicated conservation, community development, and sustainable tourism. 

The partnership ushers a new era of corporate collaboration for conservation stewardship between the two organisations.

As part of this partnership, Kenya Airways will support a Silent Digital Auction to be conducted in September 2025, with all proceeds going directly to conservation programs at Ol Pejeta. 

To bolster the auction’s offerings, KQ will offer two sets of return tickets for international destinations—either New York (JFK), London Gatwick, or London Heathrow—providing bidders with the opportunity to win extraordinary travel experiences while supporting a vital cause.
