Young EcoLeaders of the Brazilian Rainforest

Dear friend,

Greetings from Iracambi! We hope this letter finds you well. We are writing to express our gratitude for your interest in and support of our organization.

At Iracambi, our mission is clear: to tackle climate change and preserve the beauty and biodiversity of the Atlantic Rainforest. And here’s the good news! We’ve hit our 2023 targets, and now have 46 hectares of rainforest under restoration (that’s almost 86 football fields!) And - we’ve graduated 90 young environmental leaders, and reached hundreds more. 

We supplied the boots on the ground, and you, dear donors, were the wind under our sails. How about that for teamwork?  

Toda is Giving Tuesday. This year we are dreaming big - the goal of our year-end campaign is $200,000, starting today and going all through December. Every donation we receive today through GlobalGiving attracts counterpart funding - and this year they are giving away $1,000,000! 

Please consider making a donation to kick off our campaign in great style. 

Thank you for everything you do for Iracambi and for the rainforest. Together we’re saving forests and changing lives, and next year we aim to do more and better! 

Warm regards, 

The Iracambi Team

Dear friends of nature and education,

We are writing to express our heartfelt gratitude for your unwavering support of our educational program, Young EcoLeaders, here at Iracambi.

Thanks to your generosity, we are proud to announce that almost 100 bright young minds will be graduating from the program this month. This is a special occasion, and we couldn't have achieved it without your support!

Throughout the year, our dedicated teacher, Dayana, has led four different classes (turmas) within the lush embrace of nature, fostering a deep connection with the environment.

The students have delved into unusual topics for them - such as global warming, climate change, climate justice, and actionable steps to protect our precious planet. It has been an enriching journey for both the students and Dayana, and we couldn't be more proud about it!

While we celebrate this milestone, we also want to remind you that GivingTuesday is approaching. This is an excellent opportunity to continue your invaluable participation in our mission of preserving forests and changing lives, like from those kids.

Your support has empowered these young EcoLeaders to become passionate advocates for the environment and stewards of the Atlantic Rainforest. Their enthusiasm and knowledge are a testament to the positive change that can be achieved through education and community involvement.

Together, we are nurturing a generation of EcoLeaders who will play a pivotal role in the conservation of the Atlantic Rainforest and beyond.

With deep appreciation,

The Iracambi Team
