Social Responsibility

Wherever possible we endeavour to assist those in need throughout Namibia. With the help of donations from not only our guests, but also the local business community, we have been able to create change for those living below the poverty line and struggling with things that those in the first world often take for granted.

Chameleon Safaris ethos has always included the need to be socially responsible in all areas of our business including economic, social, and environmental practices.
