Penda is a fast-growing social enterprise that uses photography to create amazing experiences and generate positive change in conservation and community development efforts. Penda Photo Tours offers photography workshops around the world; exciting trips that are completely focused on taking amazing pictures. People can, for instance, join Penda to photograph the Big Five in South Africa, to encounter Mountain Gorillas in Rwanda, to learn about street photography in Cuba, or to photograph Brown Bears in Alaska. All workshops are guided by professional photographers, who help participants improve their skills throughout the experience. Penda also believes in the power of photography to do good – the photographs taken by participants are donated to the local organizations which will use them for fundraising and research purposes.
