Reefs for Life helps educate fishing villages to value their beautiful ocean waters to sustain life in and above the ocean. 

Thank you for your hardwork! We hope that more pets find the happiness and love they deserve.

From: Rheanna (16 y.o.)

It was a thrill to see the work being done to restore the health of these wildlife animals with our visit at the end of September 2025.  Keep up the great work

It takes an average of 10-40 minutes for a fish to die out of water, and sometimes it can take even longer. Keep in mind that fish (And the vast majority of sea life) feel pain.

I recently toured your facility was very impressed with the work you are doing. 

Education is the key to building a better world! We should all support it!

The team at the Scientific station and the communities they come from around the cloud forest have given the better part of 4 decades of their lives to protecting and interacting with this magical habitat teeming with life. Such a collaborative respect for all living beings sets a vital example for us and adds a glimmer of hope to our future on Earth. A giant thank you to Los Cedros, the Scientific Station, and the members of the surrounding communities! What you've made possible by working together is miraculous.

Humans can do better by all of the creatures on this planet.  Thank you for helping lead the way.

Reefs for Life is bringing life back to coral reefs and hope to the communities that depend on them.

Reefs for Life is transforming communities through conservation and restoring damaged coral reefs. We are bringing hope back to needy communities and life back to the ocean that they depend on to make a living. Partner with us and play a role in restoring tropical coral reefs in the Philippines.

Aquatic Life Institute is a 501(c)(3) non-profit focused on reducing the suffering of aquatic animals in the global food system.

Aquatic Life Institute (ALI) was founded in 2019 to address the critical and often overlooked issue of aquatic animal welfare. Recognizing that aquatic animals are the most exploited group of animals worldwide yet remain largely unprotected, ALI set out with a mission to drive systemic change and elevate aquatic animal welfare as a priority in global food systems.

Our theory of change is rooted in the belief that by influencing key stakeholders and decision makers, advancing policies, and fostering collaboration, we can drive systemic transformation for billions of aquatic animals. 

Building on this foundation, ALI has emerged as a thought leader, advocating for tangible improvements across the seafood supply chain. By engaging with key stakeholders, including corporations, certification schemes, and policymakers, we work to ensure that aquatic animals trapped in the food system receive the attention they deserve in decision-making processes relating to sustainability and food systems. 

ALI’s work is driven by evidence-based strategies and collaboration. This approach has earned ALI widespread recognition, including a 2024 Top Charity recommendation from Animal Charity Evaluators (ACE). This endorsement solidifies ALI’s position as one of the most effective organizations in the world advancing aquatic animal welfare.

An endowment protecting the Los Cedros cloud forest forever.

Held in the mists of the Ecuadorian Tropical Andes, a scientific station works with local communities to protect a cloud forest known as Los Cedros (“The Cedars”). The station encourages artists, educators, and researchers to connect with and learn from Los Cedros, whose walking palm trees and old growth lift racket-tail hummingbirds and critically endangered brown-headed spider monkeys into the clouds. Decades of interdependent artwork and scientific discovery from the station—including over 100 publications—factored into the 2021 [decision of Ecuador’s highest court](https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2021/dec/02/plan-to-mine-in-ecuador-forest-violate-rights-of-nature-court-rules-aoe) to ban extractive practices in the forest by upholding Los Cedros’ constitutional rights to exist and to thrive.

This ruling set a monumental precedent for worldwide Rights of Nature efforts. Yet mining companies continue to apply pressure to Los Cedros communities and Ecuadorian authorities—and if mining comes to pass in Los Cedros, it will devastate one of the most biodiverse and endemic forests in the world. Home to thousands of wildlife species, Los Cedros spans 6000 hectares of mostly primary forest habitat. There, the threatened spectacled bear builds a tree bed to feast on aguacatillo berries (tiny avocados), and the elusive jaguar has left her tracks on the banks of waterfalls. In the abundant green shadows, undiscovered fungi, insects, and orchids flourish. A glass frog hides his heartbeat under a leaf.

As one of the rare places where humans can still drink directly from cascading rivers, this refuge also protects numerous watersheds crucial to downstream communities. So, the Los Cedros Fund will prove that the station’s approach of sustainably partnering with the cloud forest and surrounding communities is best for Pachamama—all of Mother Earth, including humans—in the long term.

The Los Cedros Fund is growing an endowment for the cloud forest to be financially self-sufficient. Honoring all who’ve protected the forest for decades, the Los Cedros Fund aims to offer this new watershed of perennial support to the forest to keep artistic, educational, and scientific collaborations flowing.

We can only achieve this mission through the kindness and generosity of thoughtful donors like you.

Julianas Animal Sanctuary Inc is a nonprofit organization focused on advocating or providing services for animals. It is based in Edmonds, WA. It received its nonprofit status in 2015.

**🌱 Juliana’s Animal Sanctuary – Love All. Serve All.**

**Juliana’s Animal Sanctuary** is Colombia’s first and only legally registered animal sanctuary, founded with a mission to protect the most vulnerable animals and educate the public on compassion, sustainability, and nonviolence. Nestled in the Andes Mountains just outside Bogotá, we offer a safe, loving home to more than 100 rescued animals—each with their own story of resilience and hope.

From abused cows and abandoned pigs to rescued dogs, sheep, rabbits, and chickens, our sanctuary is a living testament to the power of love and second chances.

**🐄 Who We Are**

Founded in 2006 by **Juliana Castañeda**, a passionate animal advocate and certified nutritionist, Juliana’s Animal Sanctuary began as a humble act of love and has grown into a nationally recognized safe haven for farm animals in Colombia.

Juliana works alongside her husband, **Paul Rodney Turner** (founder of Food for Life Global), and a small but dedicated team to care for the animals, manage the sanctuary, and spread a message of compassion throughout Latin America and beyond.

We operate as a **registered nonprofit charity** in Colombia and as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in the United States. Our work is 100% funded by donors who believe in a kinder world for all beings.

**🐷 What We Do**

**🛟 Animal Rescue & Sanctuary**

We rescue animals from abuse, neglect, slaughterhouses, and factory farms. Every resident receives:

- A safe, peaceful environment

The Donors' Association The DSZ – International Giving Foundation was founded by the German Donors' Association for the Promotion of Humanities and Sciences in Germany. The Donors' Association was established as joint initiative of the German economy in 1920 and advocates sustainable improvement of education, science and research in Germany. It is simultaneously sponsor of the donation system and trustee of charitable foundations. The Deutsches Stiftungszentrum (German Foundation Centre)is the service centre of the Donors' Association for benefactors and foundations. More and more private persons and companies are taking on commitments in coalescent Europe and across the world. But well-intended help frequently fails to overcome bureaucratic hurdles. For example, German tax legislature denies donation deductions to organisations outside of Europe. Donations are theoretically deductible within the EU but in reality, this can generally only be achieved with excessive expenditures for donor and recipient. The DSZ – International Giving Foundation is recognized as a tax-privileged organisation. It pursues all purposes recognized in Germany as charitable and benevolent. The DSZ – International Giving Foundation supports the international project specified by the donor and takes care of the complete administrative process. The donor receives a donation receipt valid by German law. This offer is not only for donors who are looking to support an organisation abroad or for alumni of foreign universities but also for non-profit organisations not registered in German who are looking to collect donations in Germany.

2024 - 2025 : Together, let's bring the Grottoes of Vaux-le-Vicomte back to life !

**The International Friends of Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte is a charitable fund set up in February 2012. The Chateau de Vaux-le-Vicomte is one of France's most treasured institutions, celebrated for its art historical, architectural, and botanical importance and the devoted stewardship of its owners.**

**It was constructed from 1641 to 1661 for Nicolas Fouquet, the superintendent of finances for the king Louis XIV.**

**It was the first large-scale collaboration between the three major 17th-century figures in architecture, interior decoration, and landscape design: Charles Le Brun, Charles Le Brun, André Le Nôtre.**

**Owned by the de Vogüé family since 1875, each successive generation has devoted themselves to its stewardship.** 

**The Mission Statement of this fund is to bring together a devoted community of supporters, who together with the de Vogüé family, safeguard the Chateau de Vaux-le-Vicomte through the preservation of its architecture, art, and gardens and promote the chateau's legacy and profound contributions to the arts. This statement of purpose has guided the château since Count Patrice de Vogüé, opened the family home to the public in 1968.**

**Today, his three sons Alexandre, Ascanio and Jean-Charles, carry the torch.**



**Our capital campaign - *Retour aux Sources* - aims to revive the Waterworks in the Le Nôtre's garden of Vaux-le-Vicomte**

 An underground reservoir around 885 feet long collects rainwater by means of two underground gritstone water channels. The water then feeds the fountains through the force of gravity alone (Vaux is the only remaining site in France where no other energy than gravity is used). This system only allows the fountains to operate for a limited time and it is sometimes necessary to wait over a week for the reservoir to refill.

In keeping with the authenticity of the area, the objective is to operate the 22 fountains of the garden on a daily basis, without interfering with the layout or the hydraulic system designed by André Le Nôtre, modernizing only the way in which the underground reservoir is filled. By drawing water from the river and nearby sources, the water supply to the fountains will remain natural. The gravity-based circuit will work in the same way as it did in the seventeenth century, with particular attention being paid to the economical and respectful management of our primary resource: water.

 

After restoring the two basins of the *Cours d’honneur* of the château and the *Gerbe d’Eau* (for a total of us$ 1,5 millions, the next step is to restore The Grottoes.

A masterpiece designed by Louis Le Vau and André Le Nôtre, the Grottoes are the centerpiece of the gardens. Located on the main axis, they catch the eye from the south steps of the château. This grandiose setting is enhanced by a superb sculptural ensemble of eight atlas, river divinities and sandstone lions. Surrounding the Grottoes, the gushing water basins enrich this monumental setting with two *Bassins ronds* and the two *Bassins aux Grenouilles.* The whole complex rests on a retaining wall, thereby concealing an underground reservoir essential for supplying the fountains in the lower gardens. This structure of rare splendor as much as a feat of engineering is essential to the realization of our grand project *Retour aux Sources*, which aims to have all the fountains operational throughout the entire public opening season.

Between now and 2028, a number of projects will be carried out to restore the Grottoes to their former glory. A vast program, commensurate with the size of the building, is orchestrated in 3 major phases. 

**Phase 1 : The Lower Basin of the Grottoes and The Monumental Staircases**

This first stage encompasses waterproofing work on the Lower Basin of The Grottoes, masonry work to reinforce its banks and The Monumental Staircases that flank them on either side. *The Grille d’Eau*, with its 10 jets, will be refurbished to restore its aquatic spectacle.

**Global cost: us$ 1,270,000 and work will start in 2026.**

 

**Phase 2 : The Bassins Ronds and Bassins aux Grenouilles**

The second stage will focus on the work on the *Bassins aux Grenouilles* and *Bassins Ronds* (masonry, landscaping and water jet fittings), with particular attention to the preservation of historic materials.

**Global cost: us$ 1,210,000 and work will start in 2027.**

 

**Phase 3 : The Grottoes retaining wall**

Restoration of its concretions, its gigantic atlas sculptures and the hydraulic system, all to ensure the proper functioning of the fountains and the visual harmony of the site.

**Global cost: us$ 1,210,000 and work will start in 2027.**



***Dear Friends,***

***More than ever, your support is key to restoring this masterpiece and safeguarding the future of our Retour aux Sources project.***

***Of course all donations are welcome and will contribute to make this project happen.***

***I personally express my sincere and warmest gratitude for your support!***

Sage Steppe Wild uses research, data, advocacy and litigation to protect our public lands and everything that depends on them.

Sage Steppe Wild Foundation

CETI is a nonprofit org applying advanced machine learning and gentle robotics to listen to and translate whale communication. 

Founded in 2020 as a TED Audacious Project, the organization’s science team is made up of the world's leading artificial intelligence and natural language processing experts, marine biologists, cryptographers, linguists, roboticists and underwater acousticians. CETI’s research is taking place off of the island of Dominica in the Caribbean.

In the late 1960s, scientists, including Dr. Roger Payne, a principal advisor of CETI, discovered that whales sing to one another. His recordings, Songs of the Humpback Whale, sparked the “Save the Whales” movement, one of the most successful conservation initiatives in history. The campaign eventually led to the Marine Mammal Protection Act that marked the end of large-scale whaling and saved several whale populations from extinction. 

All this by just hearing the sounds of whales. Imagine what would happen if we could understand them?

WHY WHALES 
Sperm whales specifically share traits strikingly similar to humans. They live in matriarchal and multicultural societies and share dialects and strong multigenerational family bonds. Sperm whales have the largest brains of any species and have higher-level functions such as conscious thought and future planning, as well as speech and feelings of compassion, love, suffering and intuition. Their vocalizations, among the loudest animal sounds on the planet, have a Morse code-like structure that shares the hallmarks of a highly-evolved language. Our understanding of these animals and their dialects is still in its infancy. Only in the last fifteen years have we begun to learn how some of their vocalizations are used for communication.  
WHAT CETI IS DOING
CETI is:
-Developing non-invasive robotics to listen to a population of whales in the Caribbean and put their sounds into context.
-Deploying a “Core Whale Listening System,” an innovative hydrophone array, underwater robotic gliders, custom bioinspired whale tags and other technology to gently study the whales.
-Building on substantial data on the whales’ sounds, social lives, and behavior already obtained by the Dominica Sperm Whale Project. 
-Creating a bespoke, big-data pipeline to examine the recorded data and decode it using advanced machine learning, natural language processing and data science.
-Publishing a series of academic papers beginning with the CETI roadmap.
-Collaborating with the National Geographic Society, including their Exploration Technology Lab, and amplifying the project across National Geographic’s storytelling and education channels.
-Implementing community-based programs like the Dominica Marine Conservation Fellowship, a community-based 10-month multi- module training program for young Dominicans interested in marine science, that was developed in partnership with National Geographic.
-Launching various communications projects to tell CETI’s story including a public interface for the citizen science community, resources for educators and children and arts programs.

IMPACT
Now, for the first time in history, it’s possible to use artificial intelligence to identify and interpret deep structure within animal communication. Using these technologies, CETI is building on the legacy of the “Save the Whales” movement with the goal of having an impact by contributing the following:
Interspecies Communication - A new data set of unprecedented size to the rapidly expanding field of interspecies communication and a roadmap of how humans could translate the communication of any other species
Marine Biology - A substantive contribution to the field of whale research within marine biology that opens gateways for future research initiatives. 
Policy - New information about whales that can bolster policy efforts to protect marine mammals and ocean habitats. Policy advances in this area are crucial as six out of the 13 “great” whale species (the largest whales) are still endangered (World Wildlife Federation). To ensure impact in this area, CETI plans to build out policy campaigns and initiatives. 
Perspective - It is widely endorsed that connectivity with nature can improve mental health. By sharing its journey and findings with the public, CETI hopes to contribute to a feeling of increased wonder and connectedness to whales and the ocean that can inspire action. CETI will build out arts and childrens’ initiatives in support of this impact goal.
Conservation - CETI’s first phase of research is taking place in Dominica in the Caribbean, a region that is one of the world’s greatest centers of diversity. By carrying out its research in partnership with local stakeholders, CETI hopes to contribute to regionally-led research and conservation efforts.

HOW CETI IS SUPPORTING DOMINICA
-CETI’s capacity-building initiative, Dominica Marine Conservation Fellowship is a 10-month, nine module training program for young Dominicans interested in marine science) in partnership with National Geographic.  The program has three 2022/2023 fellows and partnerships with the Dominica National Youth Council, Dominica State College and Dominica’s Ministry of Education. The program’s curriculum (co-created with National Geographic) includes modules on marine science, scientific research/techniques, water and vessel skills and storytelling and leadership among other topics.
-All research and findings by CETI in Dominica are all open-source and will be available for Dominica. The organization’s sailing research vessel (CETI-1), a Rigid Inflatable Boat (CETI-2) and Dominican made boat (CETI-3) are in operation in Dominican waters; these boats along with other CETI equipment will be donated to the local entity at the completion of the project.
-A temporary field station has been established in Dominica and has the capacity to host 10-12 researchers, fellows and students. In the long-term, CETI plans to build a permanent field station in Dominica 
-In 2023, CETI will continue local engagement and presentations with primary and secondary schools, development of video content for use in classrooms, collaborations with local artists and collaborations with local stakeholders such as marine and dive operators, civil society organizations and schools.

Trees&Circles mission is to support women-led grassroots initiatives, focused on ecosystems conservation and restoration. 

We are **Trees&Circles** a **non-profit Swiss foundation** whose **mission** is to **support women led grassroot initiatives focused on ecosystems conservation and restoration.** We feel a sense of urgency to contribute to the wellbeing of our beautiful Mother Earth and all its life forms. 

We believe in the power of the collective effort of committed individuals. Together we can create a movement, **United for Mother Earth**. **Join us!**

**Why Women?** Women are the ones who nourish their communities. They tend to naturally be the guardians of life, understand interrelations and that caring for the land is caring for their children’s future. They are often marginalized and particularly vulnerable to the climate crisis. Empowering women has a direct and long-standing impact on their communities and territories.

**Why Grassroot?** Local and indigenous communities tend to be in good relationship with their territories. They best understand how the community’s and ecosystem’s needs are interrelated. Their wisdom, knowledge, culture and traditions are key to sustainability.

**Why Ecosystems?** Ecosystems represent a complex web of interrelations, built upon eons, which sustains life and culture. The wellbeing of all life forms and of human societies depend on the wellbeing of ecosystems. The predominant western extractivist and consumerist model overlooks the relational nature of life and has severely damaged ecosystems.

Thank you for your generous support.

Why Support Crop Diversity?

The world is losing crop diversity and crop relatives in the wild at an alarming rate. This diversity is important for a healthy food supply in the face of climate change and other environmental pressures. If we rely on only a few crops, we miss opportunities to develop new crops or revive existing varieties for food security and global well-being.

Crop diversity that is safely conserved and available to researchers and farmers provides options to respond to an uncertain future. A diversity of crops and diversity within crops give us diverse opportunities.

By donating to the Crop Trust, you invest in the conservation of crop diversity and make it available for use forever and for the benefit of everyone.

Protecting the Amazon rainforest and our climate in solidarity with Indigenous peoples

Since 1996, Amazon Watch has defended the Amazon rainforest and our climate in solidarity with Indigenous peoples. Long-term, trusted partnerships with Indigenous peoples — the best stewards of the rainforest — are the foundation for Amazon Watch’s campaigns for climate justice, corporate accountability, and the permanent protection of the rainforest.

The Amazon is home to more than 511 distinct Indigenous peoples. As our planet’s largest tropical rainforest, it stabilizes our global climate and an immense amount of Earth’s biodiversity and flowing freshwater can be found there. This vital ecosystem and the Indigenous peoples who have stewarded it for centuries face grave threats from deforestation, resource extraction, land grabs, and destructive development projects. The Amazon is facing a tipping point and won't be able to sustain itself as a rainforest if we remain on our current path of destruction.

To move to a turning point, Amazon Watch is carrying out campaigns in partnership with Indigenous peoples to secure Indigenous rights to ancestral territories, halt oil drilling and mining in the biome, and mobilize solidarity funds directly to Amazonian peoples at their request. Their work combines on-the-ground legal, advocacy, and communications expertise and long-term trusted partnerships with Indigenous peoples and organizations.

🌳Amazon Watch’s Amazon Defenders Fund (ADF) provides direct solidarity funding to Amazonian peoples and organizations free of bureaucratic barriers. The ADF supports Indigenous-led initiatives including community organizing, women’s leadership, communal economies, protection of Earth Defenders at risk for resisting destructive development, and crisis response including to wildfires and oil spills. The ADF is built upon a multi-decade track record as a trusted partner among Indigenous nations. You can learn more at amazonwatch.org/get-involved/amazon-defenders-fund.
