Hello!

What does outstanding solidarity with Indigenous peoples look like in action? This month, generous donors are doubling all donations up to $1 million in an unprecedented match for the Amazon! When you give to Amazon Watch by June 30, your impact will go twice as far for Indigenous rights and solutions across the rainforest.

100% of your donation will be MATCHED through June 30 and goes directly to our program work.

This $1 Million Match recognizes that we are in the most important moment for the Amazon. How we act now will define the future of the rainforest, the lands Indigenous peoples defend and steward, and our collective impact on the climate.

In the last two weeks alone, Brazil's Supreme Court resumed processes related to the controversial Ferrogrão mega-railway, a disastrous infrastructure project proposed for the Amazon and regarded as one of the most anti-environmental projects being considered by Lula da Silva's government. Proposals like these threaten to push the Amazon past its tipping point and cause massive human rights violations. Thanks to generous donors like you, Amazon Watch is able to meet these threats as they arise, including financial support to a delegation of Munduruku leaders protesting the Ferrogrão and defending their constitutional rights.

Indigenous peoples are advancing true solutions for their territories. Your support today amplifies their calls to have their lands titled and formally recognized, which is the best way to support biodiversity and avert the tipping point of the Amazon.

Please consider making a donation today to have your impact doubled during the $1 Million Match! Your solidarity makes all the difference. Thank you for moving us toward the future we know is possible with real action today!

Onward for the Amazon,

Leila Salazar-López
Executive Director
