Rainforest Trust

Rainforest Trust saves endangered wildlife and protects our planet by creating rainforest reserves through partnerships, community engagement and donor support. Since 1988, we have protected millions of acres around the world by establishing protected areas in partnership with local organizations and engaged communities across more than 64 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, Africa, and Asia-Pacific.

We are confident that the simplest and most cost-effective solution to prevent deforestation is to create legally-recognized protected areas where forests and their species can continue contributing to the health of the global ecosystem.

Our unique, cost-effective conservation model has been implemented successfully since 1988. Through highly effective partnerships, we ensure sustainable results necessary for the long-term protection of tropical ecosystems and the wildlife they hold.
