HOW TO HELP

BUY LANDWe are based within the buffer zone of the Llanganates National Park, a megadiverse area creeping with plant and animal life of thousands of forms and colours. The rivers here are the veins of both the forest and of the towns and cities further down. The land that the Fundación purchased was about to be sold to a cattle farming company. Other pieces of land in the area are also privately owned but, unfortunately, not protected. We are hoping to protect more of the area around our project site as it is increasingly under threat from tree-felling and development. If you or anyone you know is interested in buying land in endangered areas in order to protect it from destruction, please CONTACT US. At the moment the average price is around $1000 per hectare (100 times 100 meters).

VOLUNTEERFundación Fauna de la Amazonía is a non profit organisation that relies heavily on volunteers, donations and grants in order to carry on rescuing, rehabilitating, studying and protecting the threatened and mistreated wild animals, plants and forests of Ecuador. There is no doubt that help is needed here, and our main concern is making sure that all of the opportunities offered through Fundación Fauna de la Amazonía are non profit and are solely focused on the appropriate support and care of the endangered animals and plants of Ecuador, on improving their future and guaranteeing the future of their species and ecosystems. If you would like to assist us as a volunteer first read our VOLUNTEER page where you will find all the necessary information about this opportunity.
