HELP ARC PROTECT THE AMAZON RAINFOREST

Protecting the remote areas where ARC’s conservation projects are located is challenging. The gold miners, loggers and poachers know the governmental environmental police lack the resources to patrol and enforce the law in these remote areas.

We’ve learned to protect the endangered wildlife and tree species that live on our lands, we must have a constant presence there. We need forest rangers to live on ARC’s lands to maintain an extensive trail network and patrol to keep out invaders.

Your donation to this campaign not only helps save some of the Amazon’s most vulnerable wildlife and tree species; it changes the lives of rainforest families. The lack of legitimate jobs is what drives many rainforest dwellers to turn to illegal activities to feed their families. 

The cost for the annual salary and benefits for one forest guardian is CDN $15,000
