In the last century, wild cheetahs have undergone a dramatic reduction in geographic range and population size. Coordinating cheetah translocations between 75 participating reserves in 5 countries, the Metapopulation Initiative helps wildlife custodians manage cheetah populations while identifying new areas suitable for reintroductions.

During a visit to South Africa in 1960 and having traveled through the British colonized nations in Africa, British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan gave a speech that set forth a ripple effect of independence throughout much of Africa. He prophetically said: “The wind of change is blowing through this continent” because he saw that all people succeed when the nation itself rises from within.

Family Legacy believes the winds of change are still blowing, evoked by the Holy Spirit and made possible through education for all. They believe that when you educate a child, you change the world. Whether that education lasts for years or days, it stays. No one can take it away. Empowering these children is God’s work; they are simply striving to be His hands and feet to encourage the wind to blow.
