Brazil  Environment
This project will help protect 40,000 acres of Atlantic Rainforest and provide 250 indigenous families with stable incomes in southern Brazil. Cultivation of yerba mate does best in rainforest understory, incentivizing protection of the ecosystem while providing a stable income for our partner communities freeing them from the logging and industrial agriculture that has destroyed the forest. This project jump starts Guayaki's proven model that binds community health to forest protection.
