‘Experience of a lifetime’
It was my dream to visit South Africa and I was not disappointed. I chose to volunteer with ICORP due to my interest in animal conservation. It was a perfect mix of low risk anti poaching activities and community outreach. I learned how to work with anti poaching canines, went on patrols and also had a chance to visit local school and interact with pupils. I learned a lot about wildlife, especially during our trips to national parks, as well as about anti poaching and animal conservation challenges, that the unit is currently facing. Matt, Anna and the rangers made me feel very welcomed and part of the team - I’m sure I made friends for life. I can wholeheartedly recommend volunteering with ICORP. I can say with absolute certainty that I’m coming back next year, which in itself is the best testament to my experience.
My interactions with this brave group of people has been phenomenal. They are trained to protect these precious species of wildlife with their lives from poachers and they do. Because of their love for them. I constantly see Marc McDonald encouraging the teams with positive feedback continually. He motivates everyone like no other leader I have known. My interaction with him and mario on his team are are always kind, caring and committed. His work helping the villagers should never go unnoticed. They give much more than they receive. I pray for their protection as they do what we don’t. Until there are no longer evil poachers. I support ICORP and their volunteers wholeheartedly. Thank you for all you do‼️ Marion Russell
I had the chance to experience Icorp‘s work firsthand and was impressed by the dedicated men and working towards their goals.
Fantastic organization & management by passionate dedicated people.
I would definitely recommend thier services.
ICORP members are dedicated and clear about their mission. ICORP is essential to the survival of the Rhino that are decreasing in numbers everyday due to poaching. They track poachers with end result being seize and capture. They work tirelessly surveying land for snares and other trappings.
ICORP educates, creates awareness and protects the plight of the Rhino with pride and compassion.
I volunteer with this organization, ICORP. The organization is dedicated to protect Flora and Fauna in remote areas in Africa. On top of their primary mission combating armed poachers, they also help rural villages with basic needs which they donate. ICORP is staffed with dedicated employees and volunteers with various skill sets from all walks of life. Current and in the past they have operated across Southern Africa. They work in conjunction with local governments and follow their laws.
I met Marc in South Africa several years ago and we immediately became friends. Marc's devotion to protecting the animals of Africa is passionate. It is a 'job' rift with danger that needs a man or woman with military experience to execute. Marc and his son Matthew are but small cogs in protecting these animals against organized crime trading in animal parts. However, what makes them so important, is they are ICORP! ICORP is not some large charity organization top heavy with CEO's drawing top wages and benefits. When you donate to ICORP, your money goes directly towards protecting these animals. It goes towards an extremely efficient DEVOTED organization, well run and efficient, that benefits everyone associated with ICORP and their activities. ICORP becomes part of the community and that involvement is so important when protecting wildlife in Africa. ICORP is making a difference.
This is a phenomenally crucial, important and inexplicably fundamental NGO.
These ladies and gentleman give there utmost to protect and serve Mother Nature in all her diversity. Plus they're doing so 7 days a week, giving it their all and risking their lives.
How many of us can say the same?
I'm incredibly thankful for the donators who have pitched together and have gotten them the gear and transport that they need and require do protect our rhino's as safely and discreetly as possible.
Furthermore, I would like to thank all the members who are part of this team, and who selflessly give their time, energy and well-being to this independent cause.
Respectfully, and with the Warmest of regards,
James le Grange
As an individual who loves nature and would do anything to protect our endangered species out there, I became a support for ICORP a few years back, even though covid 19 hit everyone hard I am hoping and praying to be able to contribute once again to this amazing organization that actually does what so many turn a blind eye to, without ICORP I personally feel that our Rhino would have been extinct. They work purely on donations from the public yet everyday they head out to fight the good fight without wondering where the supplies and needed merchandise will come from, so many men and woman doing their utmost best to protect the last of our beautiful wildlife without hesitation or fear. I would have loved to been one of the frontline workers to help aid in this magnificent work they do on a daily basis, but if contributing financially is all I can do, it is what I will continue to do!! Anyone who knows and follows the ICORP group will know exactly what each of the members go through emotionally, mentally and physically...yet they keep fighting for those who have no voice against the cruel and harsh doings of the sickening human race out there. I gave ICORP a 5 star rating as I take my hat of to each member that on a daily basis goes through judgement, ridicule, heartache and financial strain. If everyone could just see the wonderful work this organization did and continues to do, I feel this would be a battle we all fight together in saving our Rhino and other beautiful endangered species out there. A very big applaud to all who work and support this organization and doing what some of us wish we could do. You guys are truly a special breed of humankind on their own!! Keep up the amazing work guys, together we will continue fighting this fight and together we will save our Rhino and endangered species!
Keep fighting the good fight!!

Coopero con ICORP dal 2016 con volontario, e posso testimoniare l'impegno e la serietà dei componenti di questa organizzazione. ICORP è fortemente impegnata in difesa della biodiversità in Africa ed è un punto fermo e affidabile, sono fiero del mio contributo e di appartenere a questa organizzazione.
Over the last 5 to 6 years, I have followed ICORP only media platforms and have seen the impeccable work they are doing to protect wildlife and work in poor communities and it's so refreshing to see the consistency in this companies commitment .
Matthew McDonald and his team came to our comminity in Tolwe, Limpopo when pouching was a high risk on farms.
Since they do patrols there has been a significant decrease in pouching.
Not only do they patrol the farms, but we , as a community, can always call upon them for any assistance what so ever.
You will not go wrong by signing up with this qualified, efficient and friendly team.
