The Appalachian Wildlife Foundation is headquartered in Corbin, Kentucky and pursues an 'E3' strategy linking economic, educational, and environmental renewal in Appalachia. Its flagship project, Boone's Ridge, is a 12,000-acre site in Bell County, KY near Cumberland Gap National Park that combines ecological restoration and habitat preservation (including elk and over 260 bird species) with a visitor center and conservation education programs for K-12 students, developed in partnership with institutions like the Cornell Lab of Ornithology.
