Protect the Andes-Amazon Conservation Corridor
From misty Andean ridges to the vast Amazon basin, life moves across ecosystems and elevations.
Jaguars roam from rainforest to mountains. Spectacled bears follow forested ridgelines. Andean eagles soar above valleys.
But these vital connections are at risk, and we need your help to preserve one of the most biodiverse places on Earth.
Your gift helps protect the 5-million-acre Andes–Amazon Conservation Corridor, — keeping forests intact, rivers flowing, and wildlife thriving.
Connecting Habitat Across Borders
Across borders, we’re building the bridges that keep life moving.
Each new connection strengthens the Andes–Amazon Conservation Corridor, protecting five million acres of forests and rivers that sustain life across Ecuador and Peru.
Help us reach $700,000 by December 31st — every gift doubles in impact to keep the corridor intact.
Just as the tapir depends on connected forests to survive, our planet depends on connected landscapes to thrive.
