Cheetah Conservation Fund (CCF) is an international non-profit organisation based in Namibia overlooking the ecologically diverse and strikingly beautiful Waterberg Plateau. Founded in 1990, by Dr. Laurie Marker, we maintain a Cheetah Sanctuary and operates a world-renowned Field Research and Education Centre that welcomes thousands of visitors each year. All proceeds from guests help sustain CCF programmes and support our mission to save the wild cheetah.
