The Wild Cat Education and Conservation Fund holds two fundraising events each year.

OUR ANNUAL FUNDRAISER is held in March in the South Bay. This event is an evening that includes a cocktail/wine hour with some of our ambassador cats and animals from Wild Things, a buffet dinner, a raffle, and silent and live auctions.

OUR 2009 FUNDRAISER was a huge success. Next year's event will be held on Saturday, March 13, 2010 from 6 - 10 PM at the Fremont Hills Country Club in Los Altos Hills.

Ticket cost is $125.

For over 15 years we have been bringing our ambassador cats to fundraising events for wild cat conservation. Organizations that have benefited from the presence of these ambassadors include the Cheetah Conservation Fund, Cheetah Conservation Botswana, the Small Cat Conservation Alliance, the Snow Leopard Conservancy, the De Wildt Cheetah and Wildlife Trust and Cheetah Outreach. Please read the NEWSPAPER ARTICLE about WCE&CF's participation in the Small Cat Conservation Alliance fundraiser.

Dr. Laurie Marker, Founder of the Cheetah Conservation Fund recently said the following:

"The Dicelys have been providing ambassador cheetahs at my fundraising events in the Western United States for the past 14 years. These ambassador cats have helped raise several hundred thousand dollars that have been donated for cheetah conservation. These ambassador cheetahs are of vital importance to the continued success of educating the public about the survival of an endangered species. Seeing a live cheetah has a larger impact on an audience than seeing a video on a flat screen. Through my presentation, with the aid of an ambassador cheetah, the audience begins to fully understand the plight of this animal in the wild."
