Two species of Rhinos once roamed the savannahs and woodlands of Uganda. Today, the Rhino is gone from Uganda, wiped out by war and harsh economic conditions that led poachers to hunt it down to sell the horn. It is time for the rhino to come home, and bringing home the rhino is what Rhino Fund Uganda intends to do.

With greater stability in protected areas and recent wildlife legislation enacted to ensure the protection of wildlife, Rhino Fund Uganda will create a sanctuary for the breeding of rhinos. Later they will be re-introduced into Uganda's protected areas. Rhino Fund will also launch an education and awareness campaign to inform people about the protection of this highly endangered species.

Rhino Fund Uganda is a non-governmental organisation established and registered in Uganda in 1997 whose sole objective is to successfully re-introduce the Rhino to Uganda. Rhino Fund Uganda represents a voluntary effort to help restore Uganda's wildlife and ensure the existence of rhinos in Uganda for future generations. Soon again the rhino will again be roaming the savannahs and bush of Uganda allowing visitors to see one of Uganda's big five in the wild.
