For Michael Crawley, Wild N Happy’s founder, it’s been a particularly wild and happy ride the last 25 years he’s spent in the tourism industry. Michael has something in common with a portion of the business owners and entrepreneurs who are attracted to travel, adventure, and experiencing new cultures: he has daydreamed about the idea of giving back and supporting communities around the world, ensuring tourism can be a force for good.
The Wild N Happy Foundation is Michael’s effort to take the resources and connections he’s accumulated over the years, pivoting them into a practical and effective not-for-profit foundation designed to promote responsible tourism.
