Protect the Amazon Rainforest: how to donate

The Amazon faces growing pressure from agricultural expansion, particularly in regions already impacted by deforestation. In our project area, forest cover has become fragmented, leaving remaining forests vulnerable when not formally protected. As land-use priorities shift over time, these areas risk future conversion, threatening biodiversity, water resources, and ecosystem stability. This project takes preventive action to secure and protect the forest before degradation occurs.

The project “Protect the Amazon Rainforest”, through Global Giving platform, seeks to acquire and protect 45 hectares of native Amazon rainforest, including a natural spring that supplies a forest nursery producing up to 450,000 native seedlings each year. By acquiring this land, we will safeguard biodiversity, protect water resources, and strengthen ecosystem restoration efforts. As the area is not yet protected, this is a vital opportunity for preventive conservation with lasting benefits for the Amazon.

The total goal to be attained is $280,000 that will be used to:

  • Acquire and permanently protect 45 hectares of native forest;
  • Conserve a natural spring essential to local water systems;
  • Support with seeds a forest nursery producing 450,000 seedlings annually;
  • Contribute to long-term ecological connectivity.

By protecting this area, we ensure the continuity of both conservation and restoration processes already in place. In a long-term impact, the 111 acres of forest protected will help with the conservation of freshwater source, support large-scale ecological restoration, and, at last, strengthen the local biodiversity and ecosystem resilience.

Via the platform you can donate once a selected amount to help us achieve the final goal, or monthly contribute to our work of restoring the forest and its biodiversity.
