Environmental education is a key component of what we as an institution are working on. Joining with other organizations we are putting together a program for specialists to visit schools and talk about the importance of protecting the forest and wildlife that lives in it. One of the organizations we are working with is liberating wild animals that have gone through their facility to make sure they are in good health and ready to go back to the wild. They are turning these animals loose in our 1,000 hectares (2,500 acres) of rainforest. It is vitally important that we promote a program of conservation in the region to provide some protection to these animals being liberated. Also the promotion of the management of Melipona bees. These native bees to the Amazon are stingless and vitally important for the pollination of many species of plants in the region. We are promoting where someone can adopt a beehive and we will send videos of the hive and how this project is helping women in the region. These programs and much more are where your support is going. Thanks, have a happy holiday season, and remember, I love you Douglas
