Save rainforests. Save species. Save the planet.
Every day, precious acres of rainforest are lost forever. Highly threatened species lose their habitat. Communities lose their forest livelihoods. Water sources and weather systems are disrupted. The planet is impacted when stored carbon is released by deforestation and degradation.
The threats are urgent: logging, mining, poaching, and land clearance are wiping out habitats at a devastating pace. This crisis affects everything from global health to climate stability.
Logging, palm oil production and mining destroy forests and pollute water. Poachers traffic plants and animals out of intact habitat. Human expansion and settlement, clearing forests for homesteads and farms, can result in disease outbreaks
Our conservation work makes a tangible difference.
A swamp forest that shields rare parrots. A narrow corridor that allows pygmy elephants to migrate. A stretch of canopy where a tiny, brown-spotted frog hides from predators. Each one depends on an intact rainforest to survive.
Your gift enables Rainforest Trust to take swift conservation action when and where it is needed most, to protect all forms of life on Earth from all the threats they face.
Protecting Forests Protects Everything
Rainforests are home to thousands of unique species found nowhere else on Earth. They store carbon, stabilize global weather, and regulate our planet’s freshwater.
But they’re disappearing at an alarming rate. Deforestation, development, and climate change are putting entire habitats at risk.
Be a part of our solution.
Rainforest Trust works with conservation partners around the world to stop destruction at the source. These local teams know the terrain, the threats, and the solutions—and with your help, they act fast.
And because 100% of your gift goes directly to conservation action, your impact is immediate and lasting.
Each donation will be directed to the most urgent projects—where your support can have the greatest impact. These projects span the globe, from the rainforests of Borneo to the Andes Mountains and beyond.
