The not-for-profit trust generated funds to operate Lavushi Manda mainly from external funding in the form of grants and donations, but also for a degree on its tourism operations at Kasanka National Park. Approximately a third of its funds went to Lavushi Manda. In 2017 Kasanka Trust relinquished management of the park back to DNPW, citing financial and managerial issues.

Surrounding chiefdoms have Community Resources Boards (CRB) organised with the DNPW. Additional law enforcement was funded by the World Land Trust, 25 village scouts were employed in 2017 from the Mpumba CRB to patrol the zone near the chiefdom, including the Luwombwa sector in the park and adjoining parts of Kafinda Game Management Area. They made 34 arrests and there were 22 convictions for poaching. Especially bushpig and common duiker were targeted with firearms or 54: 1353: 267:.
