He’s played clubs across the country, including The Comedy Store, The Improv, The Comedy & Magic Club, Catch a Rising Star, and The Ice House.

During the event, you will have the opportunity to engage in both a silent auction and a live auction, presenting exclusive items for bidding. We are excited to announce local celebrity, Brent Farris, as our extraordinary auctioneer. We appreciate Brent's advocacy of wildlife conservation in schools throughout our community, supporting the efforts of the Discover Africa program.

Safari West LIVE brings interactive live safari programs to children in hospitals across the US, supporting mental health and hope for wellness. The young explorers look forward to these programs, and to interact with a Safari West Naturalist. The children literally light up when they see their favorite Safari West resident such as a giraffe or lemur.

Junior Keepers learn empowerment and skill-building while learning about the wild residents at Safari West. The Junior Keeper program provides teens with opportunities to discover their passions, develop essential life skills, and foster meaningful connections within their communities.

Discover Africa provides Sonoma County and Greater Bay Area 3-12 grade students from underserved communities with excursions to Safari West to educate and engage young conservationists. In classroom education materials complete the program, supporting teachers with projects and in classroom learning.

Your support will nurture the potential of an individual participant and also contribute to the broader societal fabric, fostering a more inclusive and prosperous future for all. Through mentorship, education, and access to resources, we can and have inspired young people to become conservation leaders, innovators, and changemakers, driving positive change and creating a brighter tomorrow for generations of humans and wildlife to come.

We genuinely look forward to seeing you at "An Evening on the Serengeti"!
