Program Impact
By volunteering with Crees in the Manu Rainforest you'll be supporting our conservation and community projects in the Amazon.
Manu is the most biodiverse place on Earth, but it's under threat. Poverty and population growth drive people to destroy the rainforest through logging, farming and mining. They have few other ways of providing for their families.
To save Manu, sustainability has to be a realistic choice for impoverished communities. Through conservation research, environmental education and sustainable livelihoods we're working on the solution.
To be successful we need your support.
