Our mission is to protect and restore wildlife and ecosystems while fostering a lifelong commitment to conservation through youth involvement, education, and community engagement. By empowering the next generation of environmental stewards, we aim to create a sustainable future where humans and nature thrive together.
Impact story
At Wild Earth Defenders, we believe conservation starts with action and education. Since our founding, we have engaged thousands of people through cleanups, school programs, and community outreach efforts, helping remove more than 50,000 pounds of litter from the environment and recycle over 10,000 miles of discarded fishing line that could otherwise harm wildlife. A recent example of our impact occurred in Spring 2026, when our founder, Cash Daniels, delivered a keynote address at an environmental summit hosted by Haywood Community College in Clyde, North Carolina. The presentation connected students, educators, and conservation leaders around the idea that young people can create meaningful environmental change.
