Wild and Free Foundation (wff) is a non-profit organization founded in 2014. Our mission is to create increased goodwill for rhino conservation by empowering youth and communities through sport and economic opportunities, and to serve as the most trusted partner in rural africa. Wild and Free believes poaching will be dramatically reduced when 21st century economic opportunities exist in the rural communities surrounding the national parks and wildlife reserves.wild and Free is a different way of thinking, a different way of connecting, and an organization dedicated to uplifting and empowering people for the benefit of people, wildlife, and habitat.we believe that when we create a "prosperous perimeter" around national parks and wildlife reserves, rural community citizens will have very few or no reasons to poach. The communities surrounding wildlife reserves are the custodians of the wildlife because they will benefit from its existence
