“We should be working wholeheartedly to affect change that makes it possible for our children, and their children, to survive on this planet. That’s what is at stake. We need to make caring for the planet the number one priority, so we can live better, in more balance and with more joy, and leave something meaningful for the generations that follow.”

I’m especially proud to help amplify women and girls’ empowerment across Africa, supporting programmes that provide scholarships, mentoring, menstrual health support, and efforts to end harmful practices affecting girls.”

I’m humbled and honored to serve as an ambassador and board member for an organization doing meaningful work on the continent.”

“We don’t own this planet, we rent it, and there is growing awareness that our generation must improve the legacy we leave behind. Organisations like ACCF have the substance, reach, and field expertise to offer real hope. I’m proud to be an ambassador and continually inspired by their ability to work smart and effectively in some of the world’s most challenging conservation environments.”

“Sustainability, education, and a love of animals have always been close to my heart. As a mother, I think deeply about the world we are leaving to the next generation. I’m honored to support ACCF’s conservation, anti-poaching, and community programmes, which are making a meaningful difference. I look forward to using my voice to promote sustainability and protect our planet’s future.”

“Now more than ever we must expand the message about the importance of our natural places. Art has a unique power to move, reveal, and inspire a deeper understanding of the world around us. Wildscapes—large, balanced and intact ecosystems—are vital for future generations. I am proud to work with ACCF on projects that help protect wildlife and the landscapes that sustain them.”

John Banovich | Artist/Conservationist/ACCF Ambassador
