World Ranger Day: Honouring Virunga’s Rangers

 

 

(Posted 01st August 2025)

 

Today, on World Ranger Day, we pay tribute to the 750 Rangers who stand on the frontline of one of the world’s most extraordinary and threatened protected areas: Virunga National Park.

Medical insurance is one of the most vital forms of assistance we can offer to Virunga’s Rangers. For €42 per month, your support helps provide essential care to those safeguarding the Park every day.

To mark World Ranger Day, we’re including a free Virunga Rangers sticker with every order placed on the Virunga merchandise store until midnight CEST on July 31st.
