Liberia - Rainforest Trust Saves Rainforest

THANK YOU!

Thanks to the amazing generosity of our donors, this project has been funded and 406K acres in Liberia will be protected. But we have many other projects that still need help! Please donate today!

Giving Tuesday 2020:
Save Wildlife, Store Carbon

Liberia’s Upper Guinea Forest is home to incredible biodiversity and stores millions of tonnes of carbon. Rainforest Trust has dedicated this GivingTuesday to saving over 406,000 acres in a multi-year project to safeguard more than 1,000,000 acres of this highly threatened region.

Join in our fight this December 1st and help prevent species like Chimpanzees, Pygmy Hippopotamus, Timneh Parrots and Upper Guinea Red Colobus from disappearing forever.

Your support of this project extends far beyond local conservation, these acres will store more than 68 million metric tons of carbon in our planet––the equivalent of the annual emissions of over 14 million cars in the U.S.

Each and every GivingTuesday gift will be automatically QUADRUPLED for maximum impact! A $50 donation has the same effect as $200!

4X the Gift = 4X the Impact

Every $1 you donate today to support biodiversity in Liberia will be matched with $3 by our SAVES Challenge and a second match supported by Luanne Lemmer and Eric Veach. Your gift will have QUADRUPLE the impact!

Make a difference for wildlife today and together we will protect species, communities and the planet.

WHY SAVE RAINFOREST?

70% of the known cancer fighting plants exist only in the rainforest.

Deforestation releases as much carbon as the entire global transportation sector each year.

Nearly 70,000 acres of tropical rainforest are lost every day.

The majority of the world’s plants and animals are found in rainforests.
