Young EcoLeaders of the Brazilian Rainforest

Dear, wonderful donors, 

In our last letter, we told you that we’re selectingour next group of Ecoleaders, and we asked the kids to write to us and tell us why they would like to join the program. Here is one of their letters. 

“Dear organizers of the project that will be developed in Iracambi,

I would like to participate in the project that is being offered to the students at my school because I want to learn about this important topic: how to protect the environment.

I believe that projects like this one should be taught so as to stimulate a greater interest and care for nature.  Due to human actions,  nature has suffered from deforestation, global warming and other causes that end up causing an imbalance and the extinction of living beings around the world.

I hope to acquire knowledge and experience that can lead me to collaborate with the planet, to learn how to preserve it, to have more contact with nature and also to help raise awareness among other human beings.

 As the daughter of local farmers, I believe I can share my learning with my family and other families in the region. This project can contribute to my understanding, and I have a lot of interest and desire to participate!”

As you can see, we are helping the kids to come closer to nature and learn about and from it.  And this is only possible because YOUR gift, help us do our job!

So THANK YOU for that!

with much love, 

The Iracambi Educators 

PS: In our last letter we promised to send you pictures. And we will, we promise!
