Caving and Conservation Organizations

http://cavern.org/acca/accahome.html

" ACCA began informally in 1978, and was incorporated in 1981 as a not-for-profit corporation in Virginia and immediately began national-scale efforts to protect caves and karstlands. In 1986 ACCA moved operations to Horse Cave, Kentucky, and began a unique effort to establish the American Cave and Karst Center (now called the American Cave Museum). Development of the museum involved the ACCA, the City of Horse Cave and major private benefactors from Kentucky. The museum formally opened to the public in 1993.

"The SERA Karst Task Force, Inc. (SKTF) is a non-profit resource organization dedicated to karst conservation and the clean up of cave and karst features through the education of both the public and caving communities."

"...the SERA Karst Task Force relies solely on the support of the public and caving community, businesses and people like you. You can get involved and work with others who share your love of karst areas, caves, the groundwater supply and belief in the conservation and clean up of these natural resources. All you have to do is contact the SERA Karst Task Force and contribute a portion of your time, skills, creativity or financial aid to assist us in reaching our goals. Working together we can conserve our lands and waters for future generations to enjoy."
