The story of Stewart and Juli Juneau is part hometown-boy-makes-good tale, part Jungle Jim adventure and part inspirational account of one family’s urge to share the fruits of their labors with underprivileged and inner city children. The saga begins and ends in the “Big Bend” region of Avoyelles Parish, with stops along the way in both the wilds of Africa and the penthouse heights of Canal Street in New Orleans....

The Housing and Education Foundation, Inc. (HEF) is a non-profit organization based in Louisiana. HEF is dedicated to enhancing the physical, social, and educational development of underprivileged families. Through HEF’s African Village and Safari Park, located in Central Louisiana, we provide a one-of-a-kind, motivational and educational camp for underprivileged children, who would not otherwise be able to experience such a unique outdoor environment. HEF programs focus on lecture and hands-on education to teach participants about exotic wildlife, local conservation and much more.
