| The Louisville Zoo, in partnership with LG&E and KU Foundation, invites families and individuals to join Kids in Action, a 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. |
