Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
We're lucky enough to have all we need to live a happy and comfortable life together, so rather than having a traditional wedding gift list we have chosen three charities we'd like people to consider donating to. One of those charities is Rainforest Concern.
Rainforest Concern was established to protect threatened natural habitats, the biodiversity they contain, and the indigenous people who still depend on them for their survival. At present the organisation has 18 conservation projects in 12 countries: Ecuador, Peru, Chile, Colombia, Brazil, Romania, Suriname, Costa Rica, Panama, India, Sri Lanka and Uganda. They work closely with local conservation organisations in these countries to protect rainforests.
In the UK, Rainforest Concern operates an 'acre sponsorship' programme to encourage the public to become directly involved in rainforest conservation. The £50 per acre requested, goes towards the purchase and protection of rainforest at one of their projects in Ecuador, Chile or Colombia.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
