They achieve this by providing opportunities for individuals, families, community groups, businesses and philanthropists to support our rainforest property purchase and protection, research and restoration projects.

Uncle - Helping boys become men
Uncle is a mentoring program existing for boys (particularly those with absent fathers) who would benefit from a more supportive environment of positive male role models. Uncle recruits, screens, trains and supports adult male mentors to spend time with local boys and organizes and facilitates activities and workshops where men and boys interact, learn, play and work together. Uncle builds communities of men that care about the young men in their community and also gives the boys an alternative social community outside of home and school in which to explore their place in the world.
