Journeys That Give Back
Director's Story
Emanuel’s journey is one of resilience, determination, and purpose. He grew up in extreme hardship, in a home that offered little protection from the outside world. From Standard One through Seven, he attended school without shoes and was unable to continue to secondary education due to financial limitations in his family.
In 2000, Emanuel began working as a house boy, earning approximately USD 3 per month. Despite these challenges, he remained committed to creating a better future for himself. He pursued short professional courses, through which he discovered his passion for wildlife photography—an opportunity that became the foundation of his career.
Today, Emanuel is the founder of Remarkable Tears Safari, a company whose name reflects both his personal journey and his vision. Guided by compassion and lived experience, Emanuel is dedicated to giving back to the community. A core mission of Remarkable Tears Safari is to support homeless families by contributing to the construction of safe homes, helping others build dignity, stability, and hope for the future.

Travel With Purpose
One of the goals of Remarkable Tears Safaris is to provide opportunities to those who otherwise would not have received them. CEO of the company underlines “this is the best way for me to provide back to the community, those students who cannot meet their educational needs as I used to be I’m sure there will be no more remarkable tears for those beneficiaries”
The company aiming to use the profits gained to provide aid to those marginalized students by funding their school fees and their basic school needs. The criteria’s and selection process will be initiated to get not more than 10 students who will be fully covered per year due to limited fund available. However, in three years to come, the number will be maximized while receiving intermittent funding boosts from individuals like you, family and friends around the world who have identified with our goals.
