Bernie de Le Cuona has long supported conservation projects in Africa and in May 2024 she returned to Zambia and Game Rangers International. This renowned wildlife conservation organization specializes in resource protection, community outreach, and wildlife rescue. With droughts becoming more severe in South Africa, wildlife is being driven out of their natural habitats and encroaching on human settlements, leading to significant challenges for both communities and animals, especially elephants.

During her trips to Zambia Bernie actively participates in the daily activities of the Game Rangers. In particular, she helps give special care to a baby orphan elephant named Kasungu. It can take up to six years for young, orphaned elephants to be ready to be re-introduced into the wild, and de Le Cuona is proudly financing Kasungu’s rehabilitation
