Our live comedy night benefits our conservation work protecting endangered wildlife and habitats in southern Africa.

Gotham Comedy Club has launched the careers of some of the biggest stars in comedy, including Jim Gaffigan and Amy Schumer. Sometimes Jerry Seinfeld and Trevor Noah grace the stage.

Wild Tomorrow is a dynamic nonprofit dedicated to the protection endangered species and the wild habitats they call home. We take a holistic approach to nature conservation, encompassing habitat preservation and rewilding, wildlife ranger support, and community empowerment.

Over the past nine years, Wild Tomorrow has secured over 4,000 acres of at-risk land that will link two large wildlife reserves together, creating a wildlife corridor that will expand and reconnect habitat for a diversity of flora and fauna and provide extra climate resilience for both wildlife and people.

In our Greater Ukuwela Nature Reserve in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, ecologists have confirmed a stunning diversity of 1,253 species (and counting!) including 52 mammals, 416 birds, 21 amphibians and 162 flower species.

Some of our favorites? Giraffes, elephants, leopards, hyenas, wildebeest, zebras... and the inherently hilarious baboons. Maybe one or two will make an appearance at the comedy night on Tuesday, June 11!

Today, one million plant and animal species face the threat of extinction. Major causes include the loss and fragmentation of their habitats. But it's not too late to turn the tide for wildlife.

Wild Tomorrow Fund is focused on saving and restoring habitat in KwaZulu-Natal South Africa to create a wildlife corridor that expands wild space and will link two large wildlife reserves together, including a UNESCO World Heritage Wetland Park. The corridor will expand and reconnect habitat for many threatened species from elephants to black rhinos, and provide extra climate resilience by giving access for wildlife to its lifesaving freshwater river and springs.

We work together with the local community to ensure that our wildlife conservation work brings tangible benefits to the people who live alongside the wildlife corridor.
