The remaining KSh 3 million will cater for network connectivity during the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking during the cheque handover ceremony held at Safaricom Headquarters in Nairobi, Safaricom CEO Peter Ndegwa said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis year, we are proud to commit KSh 114 million through the M-PESA Foundation and Safaricom. As a company, sustainability remains central to how we create long-term value for our customers, communities, and the environment. Our support for the Rhino Charge reflects our commitment to practical conservation efforts that protect Kenya\u2019s natural heritage while driving innovation and resilience.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The connectivity support will include the deployment of 5G aimed at enhancing both participant and spectator experiences. This will enable seamless communication and engagement while demonstrating how technology can transform events even in the most remote and rugged terrains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the team support allocation, Car No. 44 will receive KSh 15 million, while the EV Explorers and Zambarau Heels on the Wheel teams will each receive KSh 1 million to support their participation in the challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This year\u2019s edition, which also marks the 37th Rhino Charge challenge, is expected to attract 55 entries, including the 2025 overall winners, Team Huzi (Car No. 33) and Team Zambarau, the all-ladies team, among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAs Team Zambarau, we are grateful for Safaricom\u2019s support. This is a huge boost for us as an all-ladies team, and it has always been our wish to have them as our sponsors in this noble cause. Their commitment strengthens our resolve, providing us with the resources and confidence to compete at our best,\u201d said Elizabeth Wanjiku, Team member, Zambarau Heels on the Wheel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis support not only empowers our team but also reinforces our shared mission of advancing conservation and protecting Kenya\u2019s natural heritage through the Rhino Ark Kenya Charitable Trust.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last year\u2019s event, held in Saimo Soi, Baringo County, raised a total of KSh 269.5 million in support of the conservation of Kenya\u2019s water towers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adil Khawaja emerged as the top fundraiser for the third consecutive year, raising KSh 139.8 million, followed by Car No. 23 led by Peter Kinyua, which raised KSh 13.5 million, and Car No. 63 led by Tim Carstens, which raised KSh 8.6 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAs a team, we are truly grateful for Safaricom\u2019s continued support for this event. This is the second year in a row they are backing us, and we deeply appreciate it. As the only EV team in the competition, we are highly motivated not only to complete the challenge but also to emerge among the best, building on lessons from last year\u2019s mechanical challenges as we champion the future of electric mobility and environmental conservation,\u201d said Richard Kiplagat, Team Lead, EV Explorers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Safaricom has supported the Rhino Charge for over a decade, helping raise more than KSh 2.6 billion for conservation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The funds have supported electric fencing in areas such as Mt. Kenya, the Aberdares, and Kakamega Forest, as well as the protection of water towers and natural habitats across Kenya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To date, the Rhino Ark Kenya Charitable Trust has built over 650 km of electric fencing, and through these fencing programmes, more than 80,000 families are being protected from the impacts of human-wildlife conflict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe impact of this initiative has been significant for both conservancies and communities at large. This year\u2019s preparations for the Rhino Charge Challenge are in full swing, and we expect a total of 65 entries to take part in the challenge and fundraising effort in support of this noble cause of environmental conservation and the protection of Kenya\u2019s vital water catchment towers.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I would like to sincerely thank all our sponsors, including the M-PESA Foundation and Safaricom, whose support has been instrumental to this journey for over a decade,\u201d said Christian Lambrechts, Executive Director at Rhino Ark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Rhino Charge is an annual off-road 4\u00d74 competition held in Kenya that raises funds to support the activities of the Rhino Ark Kenya Charitable Trust, an NGO which works towards the conservation and protection of Kenya\u2019s mountain range ecosystems, the so-called \u201cWater Towers.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NAIROBI, Kenya, May 21 &#8211; The 2026 Rhino Charge Challenge, set for Saturday, 30th May in Samburu, has received a major boost of KSh 114 million from the M-PESA Foundation and Safaricom PLC.
