Wildfires have affected more than 1,200 hectares in Rio Tambo, Peru, threatening Ashaninka families, their homes, crops and livelihoods. The loss of forest also puts local ecosystems at risk. Your donation can help Reforest Trees respond to verified urgent needs and support recovery guided by community priorities. We are committed to transparent use of funds and regular updates on activities and results.
Wildfires in Rio Tambo, Junin, Peru, are threatening Ashaninka communities, damaging forests, crops, homes, and livelihoods. Andina reported more than 1,200 hectares affected on October 19, 2026. The emergency creates two urgent priorities: supporting coordinated fire response with appropriate resources and helping affected families access essential supplies. Both require assistance guided by verified needs, local coordination, and available resources.
Your donation can help Reforest Trees mobilize support along two lines: resources for coordinated wildfire response, such as protective equipment, tools, and logistics, and humanitarian assistance for affected Ashaninka families, including essential supplies. Funding will be allocated according to verified needs, safety requirements, local coordination, and available resources. We will account for existing relief efforts and report how donations are used.
This project aims to help Ashaninka families meet urgent needs, recover affected livelihoods, and strengthen community resilience. Supporting coordinated fire response may also help responders work more safely when resources are available and activities are locally coordinated. Where feasible and included in the project plan, recovery may support ecosystem restoration. Reforest Trees will share documented progress and transparent updates on the use of donations.
