Deadline Extended until Friday, April 19, 2024 at noon (EST).

The Louisville Zoo, in partnership with LG&E and KU Foundation, invites families and individuals to join Kids in Action, a new initiative created just for kids and part of the Zoo’s Earth Month Celebration.

Kids in Action encourages children to design conservation projects for the benefit of their own community. The program also offers students a platform to share these projects with conservation minded individuals across the region.

Projects could include creating a backyard pollinator garden, cleaning up a neighborhood park or collecting rainwater for a home garden. These projects will provide a platform for students to share important messages of conservation with their peers.

Projects need to be registered on the Kids in Action webpage by April 19.  Four participants will be drawn at random to win Louisville Zoo prize packs. On April 22, we will feature these submissions on our website and present a video retrospective on our social media channels. Because ultimately with the collective work of students, everyone wins – humans, nature and animals!

project SUBMISSION Deadline Extended until Friday, April 19, 2024 at noon (EST).

Winners will be asked to attend a press conference at the Zoo at 11 a.m. on Sunday, April 21, 2024.

For questions or more information, please contact Kyle Shepherd at kyle.shepherd@louisvilleky.gov or (502) 238-5331.
