We were asked in 2014 to address the high level of elephant poaching, which was 10% annually of the herd.
We started by erecting a 16' tall elephant in Kenner near Divine Mercy Church and drafting a bill for Congress to increase the penalties of Wildlife Trafficking to RICO levels and provide surplus military resources to help those fighting ISIS. By 2019, elephant poaching was reduced by 50% annually from 35,000 to 15,000.
We then expanded our focus to other areas. For free we provide 5-7 minute videos to non-profits for their own marketing use and for public broadcasting.
To date we have produced approximately 100 segments. These are posted on our You Tube Channel.
Breakdown of 30-minute episodes. Each episode has 3-7 segments. :
#1-5 Louisianans saving endangered species.
#6-9 Louisianans restoring the coast.
#10-13 Social Philanthropy of Mardi Gras - Children's Hospitals and Special Needs Schools
#14-19 Non-Profits Honoring and helping Veterans
#19-20 Non-Profits helping homeless & trafficked youth, domestic violence, and breast cancer research
