Cocktails & Cats New York City

You are cordially invited to join us for an evening with Costa Rica for jaguar conservation. Enjoy cocktails over lively conversation, live and silent auctions, and a featured talk by world renowned jaguar biologist, Dr. Eduardo Carrillo.

This event is sponsored by the Katie Adamson Conservation Fund in tandem with Conservation Wild in New York, and NAMA Conservation in Costa Rica.

The Katie Adamson Conservation Fund has partnered with NAMA Conservation in Costa Rica and Conservation Wild in New York to help conserve and research jaguars in the wild.

The Katie Adamson Conservation Fund transcends the role of a typical endangered animal conservation organization. Our mission encompasses a spectrum of impactful initiatives that extend beyond preservation alone. While our central objective revolves around the protection of endangered species, our approach entails a multifaceted strategy.

Our core emphasis remains on safeguarding endangered animals and involves a synergistic blend of elements such as youth education, fostering community sustainability, leveraging virtual reality technology for immersive education, and facilitating career advancement for individuals who are impassioned about the species we strive to aid.
