In 2010, Lou founded Kids Against Animal Cruelty (KAAC), an educational foundation for animal rights, rescue and shelter adoption he started at age 14 when he learned millions of animals are put to sleep if not adopted. Today its state chapters run by teens work to lobby against puppy mills, ban shelter gas chambers, save wild Mustangs, and preserve America’s western frontier. He continues lobbying to educate his generation on responsible pet ownership.
