The news about this years dramatic forest fires in the Amazon and Cerrado in Brazil are making headlines worldwide. BJF is on top of the developments. At least the current destruction is not within the Araguaia Biodiversity Corridor region or near our forest restoration sites. The areas most affected by the destruction are the southwest of the Pará state and the state of Rondônia.
The news of these fires has strengthened our determination to plant more native trees and to work harder at pursuing our mission, to bring life back to degraded lands in the heart of the Amazon and Cerrado!
Governments around the world change every so many years. We will not change our purpose and mission, and with your support we will expand our restoration work on the ground. We are here to stay!
Yesterday, a global platform Fight for the Amazon was launched by WeLight and BJF was chosen as one of the non-profit partners for the campaign! Really amazing! We have also received lots of positive social media attention in the past few days.
Still, we are 100% dependent on donations and contributions from people like you. If you are not a BJF donor or partner yet, you can get involved now by making your donation today.
