Join us for an exciting episode where we bring in Co-Founder and Executive Director of the Katie Adamson Conservation Fund (KACF), Dave Johnson. When a young conservationist and friend, Katie Adamson, passed away due to cancer, Dave stepped in to create a non-profit organization in her memory.

Based in Denver, Colorado, the fund is a community-based organization that travels across the world to help local communities in their efforts to save endangered species. From radio collaring lions in Tanzania to funding and building a new vet hospital in Nepal, the KACF has been to over 24 countries and has helped countless animals in need.

Beyond the global expeditions, Dave also works with people in education and entertainment, hosting fundraisers, speaking at zoos and writing children's books to extend their reach. Dave embodies what it means to be a conservationist, but knows that it takes people to save animals and is willing to do whatever it takes to accomplish his mission.
