Transform Lives, One Project at a Time.

One solar lamp help us reach 5 end-users, save families 10,000 MGA a month (from shifts on spending on fuel, candles, electricity), give children more hours for evening reading, give precious time for family gatherings, improve personal safety, reduce incidence of fires from kerosene lamps tipping over, decrease CO2 emissions with less pollution exposure. We need $3,720 to provide solar lamps to Isalo community members

Apolinar's Wren is an endemic bird in Colombia with a decreasing population trend, in the brinks of extinction. We want to help reverting it, by providing a new approach to environmental education in rural schools at Lake Tota (main location of its habitat), as a model with a potential to be spread out. Aiming to increase affection, participation and awareness, designed to be fun and creative, combining transmedia storytelling, in which children will also be introduced to various art forms.

This project will help to reduce hunger and food insecurity among farmers. In Nigeria, about 3.7 million people, across16 states, are food insecure. Several factors have driven this. These include civil conflicts, large-scale displacement, rising food prices, climate change, natural resource degradation, poverty and population growth. About 9 out of 10 Nigerians cannot afford a healthy diet. The COVID-19 pandemic has worsened the hunger situation, particularly impacting food supply and price.

You hear a lot about Amazon DEforestation, but not much about REforestation! At our field stations we are working to grow native high quality timber, medicinal and fruit trees for reforestation of degraded areas, and to promote community-level reforestation activities. These trees sequester carbon, protect and create wildlife habitat, support biodiversity, and serve as living bank accounts for rural communities. A small investment now can result in a lifetime of benefits for the Amazon.

As trash breaks down in landfills, it releases methane and nitrous oxide gases. Approximately eighteen percent of methane gas in the atmosphere comes from wastes disposal and treatment. Reducing, reusing and recycling is a key part of climate change strategy to reduce our green house gases emission and reduces carbon emission. Creating employment to women in the community by making salable crafts. To bring income to households and enhance their social welfare.

Health In Harmony partners with Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities living in and around the Manombo Forest in Southern Madagascar to implement community-designed solutions to halt deforestation. Manombo is shrinking rapidly under the pressures of slash-and-burn agriculture, logging, and hunting, which are rooted in food insecurity and a lack of healthcare and other livelihoods in the region. Communities requested support for healthcare, education, and training in regenerative livelihoods.

The Experiencia Visionaria is a collection of three complimentary programs that bring quality education to schools in rural areas of the Cusco Region, so that adolescent students who have had their education affected by the pandemic, commit to their personal development and take action to fulfill their visions of success for themselves and their communities.

UpRoot has rescued and redistributed into Colorado's hunger-relief system nearly 1 million servings of nutrient-dense, locally grown surplus food since our beginnings in 2017, though we estimate that more than 1 billion servings remain unharvested and unsold on Colorado farms annually. This project will allow us to purchase the equipment needed to glean more surplus food as we expand our programming into Colorado's agriculturally-abundant Delta County.

In Kenya, severe and frequent drought triggered by climate change is devastating rural families. People whose livelihoods depend on the land are left with nothing as their animals perish and their crops wither away. Families are going hungry. MADRE and the Indigenous Information Network are training Indigenous women to confront the impacts of climate change by conserving resources and adapting local ways of life.

Green Map NYC published its first map highlighting climate change in 2006. Today, with climate urgency transforming our priorities, Green Map System seeks your support for a variety of replicable local climate health action projects, on the map, in the media and on the streets.

Seeding Futures is a 11-week Accredited Skills Program that grows real resilience skills in un- and under-employed youth and prepares them for work opportunities in the local green economy.

Warm Heart needs to go solar to cut our negative impact on the environment. We grow our own food, the programs we promote help reduce greenhouse gas and PM2.5 emissions, improve public health & reduce rural poverty. But we still depend on traditional power, power that is generated with coal and increasingly with Mekong River killing hydro! The minute we go solar and get off the grid, our weight on the environment is lifted, and our children will have a stable power source for online learning.
