MEET KATE
Kate Gilman Williams was 7 years old when she went on safari in South Africa. Michelle, her game driver, taught her about the animals, their habitats, and the dangers they face from humanity every day. Kate journaled her experience and wrote about her learnings every day, and when she returned back home Kate decided enough was enough.
It was time to take action.
THE BOOK
Kate and Michelle teamed up to write “Let’s Go On Safari” to spread awareness about animal conservation, life in the African bush, and inspire people everywhere to advocate for animals facing extinction.
100% of sales are donated to The Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, the Jane Goodall Institute, and Global Wildlife Conservation for animal protection and anti-poaching efforts.
The Organization
When I was on my book tour in 2019, I met kids from all over. Two emotions were consistent – love and anger. I noticed a pattern when I was talking to them:
“We love animals! How can humans kill animals? This is wrong.”
“I didn’t know I could be an animal advocate!”
I founded Kids Can Save Animals to help my generation turn their natural love for animals and our planet into advocacy. I believe that advocacy has no age limit. And the truth is, it is up to my generation to fix big things. So let’s go!
