“We are very concerned about this model of development that is, for us, a model of death.”

Every day, commodities from deforested lands in the Brazilian Amazon are exported to global markets. This mercenary destruction of the Amazon doesn’t just happen on its own: international finance and global corporations are complicit in putting their profits over the lives of people and the future of our planet.

We need your support to end this cycle. Can we count on you to make a donation in solidarity with Indigenous leaders on the front lines? From now until New Year’s Eve, every donation will be matched up to $100,000, and every dollar will go directly to our program work in the Amazon!

You help us build a future in which Indigenous leaders can stand up for their peoples and territories free of violence and retaliation. Until then, we hope you can accompany Indigenous Earth defenders as they resist these destructive forces and defend our Mother Earth.

2020 has been a terrible year for so many reasons, but what we can do TODAY is stand alongside Indigenous peoples in defense of our collective future. If you're able, please help us to reach our goal to raise $200,000 for the Amazon and the people who protect it!

Thank you!
