A limited NFT collection to underscore the urgency needed in our conservation efforts to ensure we protect these incredible animals and the habitats they rule.
CONSERVATION
MEETS COLLECTION
No Kingdom without Kings (NKWK) is an NFT collection that highlights the importance of real-world animal wildlife conservation. The project is focused on bringing awareness and funding to wildlife organizations that are close to its creator’s heart through the proliferation of striking, majestic imagery.

OUR MISSION
At NKWK we're on a mission to raise $1 million for GG Conservation as we strive to help care for endangered animals in need of a happy home.
This will help GG Conservation with veterinarian care, a much-needed on-site veterinary procedure center, lion camp enrichment, additional farm vehicles, and additional security for lion safety.
“I’m incredibly excited to launch No Kingdom without Kings as an NFT collection, to begin building a community that focuses on the importance of wildlife conservation - particularly as NFTs open the world of art to a new generation. It becomes equally important that conservation efforts, which have always been at the forefront of traditional art, carry over into the NFT space.”
- Simon Needham, Creator of No Kingdom without Kings
“We have partnered with Simon over the course of many years, his efforts have meant a tremendous amount in terms of awareness and funding for the animals at GG. We’re thrilled to support the work he’s doing to enter the NFT space and bring our important cause to the next generation of art collectors.”
- Suzanne Scott, Director GG Lions NPC (Non-Profit Company)

“The tables have turned: The NFT collection, called "No Kingdom Without Kings," was taken at a selection of conservation charity sites in South Africa, and those who buy the NFTs could win a Human Lion Cage experience.”
“Roar-some cause: The project aims to raise $1M to help support GG's work, including the relocation of up to 20 lions living in poor conditions in the Middle East.”
