Askari Circle

In Swahili, the term “Askari” refers to elephant bulls in a bachelor herd tasked with the critical responsibility of safeguarding the elder, dominant bulls.

The DSC Foundation’s Askari Circle honors financial supporters who contribute unrestricted donations to advance the Dallas Safari Club’s mission of conservation, education, and hunter advocacy. Full Membership is achieved upon reaching $100,000 in total unrestricted donations, recognizing hunter-conservationists committed to preserving hunting heritage and tradition.
