Imbali
I-Giraffe Centre yaqala ubomi ngo-1979, xa yayisungulwa inkqubo yokuzalisa iirafu zikaRothschild nguJock Leslie-Melville, umzukulu waseKenya waseScottish Earl. Enye nomfazi wakhe, uBetty, u-Leslie-Melville wanquma ukulungisa ukuhla kweentlobo ze-subspecies, ezaye zaqhutyelwa kwinqanaba lokutshatyalaliswa ngokulahlekelwa kwendawo kwintshona yeKenya. Ngowe-1979, kwaqikelelwa ukuba kwakukho kuphela iigirafu zikaRothschild eziseleyo zasendle.
I-Leslie-Melvilles iqalile inkqubo yokuzalisa kunye ne-tirafa encotshiwe, abaye bayikhulela ekhaya labo eLongata, indawo yeziko langoku.

Ngemizamo yeeprogram ezifana nale, abantu base-Rothschild basendle bavukile baye bafikelela kuma-1,500 abantu.
Ngowe-1983, u-Leslie-Melville wagqiba umsebenzi kwiziko lemfundo nakwiziko leendwendwe, elivulelwe uluntu jikelele okokuqala ngqa kamva ngaloo nyaka. Ngalolu phulo olutsha, abaxhasi beziko babe nethemba lokusazisa ulwazi lweengxaki ze-subspecies kubaphulaphuli abaninzi.
Umsebenzi kunye nombono
Namhlanje, i-Giraffe Centre yinhlangano engenzi nzuzo kunye nenjongo ephindwe kabini yokuzalisa iirafu kunye nokukhuthaza imfundo yolondolozo.

Ukukhuthaza abantu basekuhlaleni ukuba banomdla kwiprojekthi, iziko libonelela ngexabiso elithengiswayo lokungeniswa kwamaKenya asekuhlaleni.
Iziko liphinde liqhube iindibano zocweyo zobugcisa kubantwana besikolo besikolo, iziphumo zazo ziboniswa kwaye zathengiswa kubakhenkethi kwisitolo sesipho esiphakathi. Imali yesitolo sesipho, iNtumba yeTe, kunye netikiti zokuthengisa zonke uncedo ekuxhaseni ukukhutshwa kwezemvelo ngaphandle koonyana baseNairobi abasweleyo.
