Climate Emergency Relief Fund was created to engage society in prevention to impacts expected in the near future, where the Super el Niño will hit, from late September onwards, in Brazil.
During winter, even before the climate occurance we saw floods, tornadoes, and cyclones, especially in south Brazil. Up north, we can see how the heatwave and the fires are affecting biomes.
Casa Socio-Environmental Fund keeps raising funds to donate directly to the most affected and vulnerable groups in our region.
As we can assure from more than 20 years experience donating directly to real guardians of the climate regulatory ecosystems in South America, indigenous peoples, quilombolas, and traditional communities are already creating concrete adaptation solutions on the ground. The Casa Fund's mechanism ensures that resources bypass traditional structural bureaucracy.
Casa Fund has previously backed hundreds of community-led wildfire prevention and response projects, providing critical training and equipment to forest communities facing severe drought. We also have been supporting key movements that receive post-disaster grants that help vulnerable groups rebuild sustainably, such as helping women in flood-affected regions establish medicinal agroforests.
