The Kkac Organization

The Kkac Organization is a minority-owned, non-profit community development corporation specializing in conservation and agricultural outreach programs for historically underserved communities, particularly African American landowners. Based in Little Rock, Arkansas, the organization is registered in SAM.gov and focuses on promoting sustainable land management, conservation efforts, and economic development in rural and urban areas across multiple states, including the Mississippi Delta region, Alabama, Arkansas, Michigan, and South Carolina.

Through numerous Cooperative Agreements and Project Grants primarily from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), The Kkac Organization delivers comprehensive technical assistance, education, training, and outreach services. These services encompass sustainable forestry, working lands management, land conservation easements, estate planning, and youth agribusiness programs. Key federal grant programs include the Soil and Water Conservation program, Environmental Quality Incentives Program, Agricultural Conservation Easement Program, and the Inflation Reduction Act Urban & Community Forestry Program. The organization has received significant funding ranging from $250,000 to $9,000,000 for projects aimed at increasing awareness and utilization of conservation programs among historically underserved communities. Additionally, as a sub-grantee, The Kkac Organization has worked with the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation to provide outreach and technical assistance for forest habitat restoration and enrollment in programs like the Wetland Reserve Easement Program, with a focus on engaging landowners and creating opportunities for youth participation in conservation efforts.
