How we relate to the BJF
Astrid raises funds for the BJF through her endurance races and even by selling unique portrait pictures. “As a Supporting Friend, I am very proud to help make the Araguaia Corridor zone a bit more jungle green again! Nowadays, the world is our playground with beautiful places to visit, but we should maintain it so next generations can also benefit and enjoy! I saw the BJF growing from the start and I am confident that its very dedicated worldwide team can make a noticeable difference!’’
