SHAKER GLOBAL ANIMAL PROTECTION FOUNDATION INTRODUCES FIRST GLOBAL AMBASSADORS, BUILDING AN INTERNATIONAL NETWORK FOR ANIMAL PROTECTION

Founder-funded Wyoming organization appoints its first representatives in the United States, Thailand, South Africa, and Iran to advance animal welfare, responsible advocacy, and international cooperation.

CHEYENNE, WY, August 27, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Shaker Global Animal Protection Foundation has introduced its first group of Global Ambassadors, establishing the beginning of an international network dedicated to protecting animals, promoting responsible animal care, supporting endangered species, and strengthening cooperation among communities, institutions, and governments.

The first appointments represent the United States, Thailand, South Africa, and Iran. Together, the ambassadors reflect the foundation's belief that compassion for animals has no national, cultural, or geographic boundaries.

The inaugural ambassadors are:

• Anahita Kate Nalani Shaker — United States Youth Ambassador
• Vatcharin Kaewkaiw — Ambassador for Thailand
• Craulisha Diop — Ambassador for South Africa
• Dr. Rozhin Sadighi — Ambassador for Iran

The Shaker Global Animal Protection Foundation, known as SGAPF, is a Wyoming-registered, founder-funded organization established by international entrepreneur and humanitarian founder Morad Shaker. The foundation operates without public fundraising and does not request donations from individuals, governments, or participating countries.

Its work is supported by its founder as part of a broader international humanitarian ecosystem focused on dignity, opportunity, responsible leadership, poverty reduction, education, animal welfare, and service to vulnerable communities.

"Animals cannot speak before governments, defend themselves before institutions, or explain their suffering to the world," Shaker said. "Human beings therefore carry a responsibility to become their voice. Protecting animals is not limited by nationality, geography, religion, or political borders. It is a responsibility shared by humanity."

A YOUNG AMBASSADOR REPRESENTING THE UNITED STATES

Anahita Kate Nalani Shaker, Morad Shaker's younger daughter, has been appointed as the foundation's United States Youth Ambassador.

Her appointment recognizes her natural relationship with animals, her compassion, and her potential to encourage other young people to understand that kindness toward animals is an important part of responsible citizenship.

Anahita represents the younger generation within the foundation's expanding international mission. Her role is intended to demonstrate that leadership in animal protection does not begin at a particular age. It begins when a person develops compassion, accepts responsibility, and decides to become a positive voice for animals.

She will help promote youth awareness, humane treatment, responsible animal care, and greater participation by children and young people in animal-welfare activities.

"As a father, I have watched Anahita's connection with animals and the kindness she shows toward them," Shaker said. "As the founder of this organization, I also recognize the importance of giving young people a meaningful place in the future of animal protection. They will inherit the world we leave behind, and they should help shape it today."

BUILDING REPRESENTATION ACROSS COUNTRIES AND CONTINENTS

Vatcharin Kaewkaiw has been appointed as the foundation's Ambassador for Thailand. Her appointment creates an important connection between SGAPF and a country where animal welfare, wildlife protection, community participation, and responsible tourism can work together to create meaningful results.

Craulisha Diop has been appointed as Ambassador for South Africa. South Africa's extraordinary wildlife, natural environment, and globally recognized conservation role make the country an important part of the foundation's international direction. Her participation will help advance awareness, encourage cooperation, and identify opportunities for responsible local engagement.

Dr. Rozhin Sadighi has been appointed as Ambassador for Iran. As a veterinarian pursuing further studies in Australia, she brings professional knowledge, academic experience, and a direct commitment to animal health and welfare. Her veterinary background adds an important professional dimension to the foundation's first international group.

Each ambassador brings a different perspective, background, age, and area of experience. Together, they represent the foundation's intention to build a diverse global network united by a common responsibility toward animals.

HONORARY, UNPAID, AND SERVICE-BASED APPOINTMENTS

All SGAPF ambassador appointments are honorary and unpaid. Ambassadors are not employees and do not receive salaries, financial benefits, or compensation from the foundation.

Their appointments are based on service, compassion, integrity, and a willingness to become responsible voices for animals within their respective countries and communities.

Although the positions are honorary, they are intended to be active rather than ceremonial.

Ambassadors may identify animal-welfare concerns, communicate with relevant organizations, encourage public awareness, recommend responsible projects, and help connect the foundation with veterinarians, universities, community leaders, government agencies, conservation organizations, and other qualified institutions.

When appropriate, ambassadors may also help identify legitimate needs for veterinary equipment, educational resources, animal-care supplies, emergency assistance, or institutional cooperation. Any request or proposed project must be properly documented, reviewed, and approved by the foundation before commitments are made.

The ambassadors may also represent the foundation at suitable public events, educational programs, government meetings, diplomatic engagements, media activities, and discussions with respected community leaders or other public figures.

No ambassador is authorized to raise money independently, enter into contracts, make financial promises, or legally bind the foundation without written authorization.

A FOUNDER-FUNDED APPROACH

Morad Shaker established SGAPF as one of several organizations and humanitarian initiatives within his expanding international framework.

The foundation follows his long-standing founder-funded principle. It is not structured around public donations, fundraising campaigns, membership fees, or paid ambassador positions.

This model is designed to keep the organization focused on service and measurable responsibility while reducing unnecessary bureaucracy.

Shaker has described this philosophy as "Project Zero Bureaucracy"—an operating principle intended to maintain direct accountability, control administrative costs, and ensure that programs remain connected to their original humanitarian purpose.

"An organization should not become larger than the mission it was created to serve," Shaker said. "We are building this foundation carefully. We are not promising the world overnight. We are creating a responsible structure, country by country, ambassador by ambassador, and project by project."

FROM WYOMING TO THE WORLD

The Shaker Global Animal Protection Foundation is headquartered in Wyoming as part of Shaker's decision to establish the United States base of his expanding network of organizations and humanitarian initiatives in Cheyenne.

After spending nearly three decades in Hawaii and approximately eight months in Asia engaged in international work, Shaker relocated his physical base to Wyoming in 2026.

The move places Wyoming at the center of SGAPF's United States and international coordination.

"Wyoming is now our home and our headquarters," Shaker said. "From Wyoming, we will build relationships across countries and continents. We will serve Wyoming, and from Wyoming, we will serve the world."

PART OF A BROADER HUMANITARIAN ECOSYSTEM

SGAPF is part of a broader group of founder-funded organizations and initiatives established by Shaker.

Its sister organizations include the Shaker International Scholarship Programs, which focuses on educational opportunity, scholarships, internships, and future pathways for deserving students, and other foundations addressing humanitarian service, integrity, emergency response, and support for vulnerable communities.

The animal-protection foundation may also work alongside Operation Bangladesh and the Shaker Global Poverty Reduction Ecosystem where animal welfare intersects with poverty, food security, rural life, public health, education, and community development.

Families living in poverty are often deeply connected to animals through agriculture, transportation, food production, companionship, and local economic survival. Protecting animals and improving responsible animal care can therefore contribute to stronger and healthier communities.

The Shaker Global Poverty Reduction Ecosystem is being developed as a large international framework intended to create pathways to opportunity for people across multiple countries. Its broader activation and expansion are planned for 2027.

SGAPF will maintain its distinct animal-protection mission while cooperating with related initiatives when such cooperation can produce legitimate and responsible benefits.

THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE FIRST AMBASSADORS

The first ambassadors will help the foundation understand the conditions, priorities, and opportunities within their countries.

Their work may include:

• Promoting compassion and responsible animal care
• Raising awareness about animal cruelty, neglect, and abandonment
• Supporting education concerning domestic animals and wildlife
• Identifying urgent or documented animal-welfare needs
• Encouraging cooperation with veterinarians and universities
• Building relationships with conservation and community organizations
• Communicating with appropriate government agencies and officials
• Supporting responsible initiatives for endangered and vulnerable species
• Recommending future ambassadors and qualified local partners
• Reporting meaningful developments to the foundation

The foundation expects every ambassador to act with dignity, honesty, respect, and cultural awareness.

SGAPF does not intend to enter countries to criticize their people or present itself as superior to existing organizations. Its purpose is to listen, identify areas where cooperation may be useful, and support responsible efforts already being undertaken by local professionals, institutions, and communities.

A GROWING INTERNATIONAL NETWORK

The four inaugural appointments represent the first stage of a larger international ambassador network.

SGAPF expects to gradually appoint additional qualified representatives in other countries. Future appointments will be based on character, documented interest in animal welfare, ability to communicate responsibly, and willingness to serve without using the foundation's name for personal financial benefit.

The organization will also explore cooperation with universities, veterinary schools, wildlife organizations, shelters, public agencies, researchers, youth leaders, and established animal-welfare professionals.

The objective is not simply to collect names or place flags on a website. The objective is to create a functioning network capable of identifying real needs and developing responsible responses.

"Our ambassadors are not decorations," Shaker said. "They are expected to observe, communicate, advocate, and help us understand where meaningful action may be possible. A title has value only when it is connected to responsibility."

PUBLICATION THROUGH SHAKER GLOBAL NEWS

The work of SGAPF and its ambassadors will be documented through Shaker Global News, a global digital news and media organization scheduled for its official launch in September 2026.

Shaker Global News will provide a centralized publication platform for news, reports, official appointments, ambassador activities, institutional updates, animal-welfare stories, and humanitarian developments connected to Shaker's organizations and initiatives.

The platform will also give ambassadors a structured way to submit reports from their respective countries while maintaining review, documentation, and editorial oversight.

Through this platform, SGAPF intends to share credible stories about people and organizations protecting animals, identify neglected needs, recognize responsible leadership, and increase international awareness of animal-welfare challenges and solutions.

A MESSAGE OF SHARED RESPONSIBILITY

The establishment of SGAPF's first international ambassador group marks an early but important step in the organization's development.

The foundation's message is straightforward: animals deserve protection, responsible care, compassion, and respect, and every country can contribute to that responsibility.

"This foundation begins with four ambassadors, but the responsibility belongs to all of us," Shaker said. "Every government, every community, every family, and every individual can do something. We may not be able to save every animal today, but we can refuse to ignore suffering, and we can build a stronger international voice for those who cannot speak for themselves."
