We work where it matters most.

What We Do

Acquiring Land & Planting Trees for Global Conservation

At Saving Nature, we operate on the front lines of global conservation efforts, directly addressing the crisis of tropical forest destruction. Driven by commercial agriculture, unsustainable logging, and population growth, vital ecosystems are dismantled, leaving behind fragmented habitats too small to sustain biodiversity. Our core strategy involves directly acquiring and protecting critical land fragments, ensuring their permanent conservation.

But our work extends far beyond land ownership. We then meticulously restore these acquired lands through large-scale native tree planting. By connecting isolated forest patches and rebuilding vital ecosystems with millions of trees, we establish crucial wildlife corridors. This direct action enables species to adapt to the impacts of climate change, traverse landscapes safely, and significantly helps to save thousands of animal species from extinction. Our mission emphasizes urgent, hands-on intervention: buying land, restoring it through reforestation, and protecting viable habitats to secure a sustainable future for our planet.

What We Have Achieved

Restoring Habitats & Protecting Biodiversity Through Land Acquisition

Our impact is tangible and measurable. Saving Nature has made significant strides in reversing the tide of habitat loss and protecting endangered species through our strategic land acquisition and restoration programs. We’ve successfully transformed threatened landscapes, directly countering the effects of deforestation and habitat fragmentation that plague tropical regions.

Through dedicated tree planting initiatives, we’ve restored degraded areas, converting fragmented land into thriving, interconnected forests. This crucial work has not only created new homes for countless wildlife but has also significantly contributed to carbon sequestration and improved ecological resilience. Our achievements include securing thousands of acres of critical habitats and planting millions of native trees, directly contributing to the survival of diverse species and the establishment of vital biodiversity hotspots. Each parcel of land we’ve acquired and restored represents a concrete step toward preventing extinctions and ensuring a robust, sustainable future for global biodiversity.

Featured Projects: Protecting Biodiversity Hotspots

We are actively creating 15 vital projects across 8 countries:  Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, India, Indonesia, Panama, Tanzania, and the United States. In these critical regions, we collaborate with local partners to build a better future for both people and wildlife. In these critical regions, we don’t just advocate; we acquire land and implement large-scale tree planting programs in collaboration with local partners. Our goal is to create a sustainable future for both local communities and threatened wildlife. Your support directly contributes to saving endangered species and restoring critical habitats within these irreplaceable ecosystems.

Brazil: Protecting the Endangered Atlantic Forest

Ninety-five percent of Brazil’s Atlantic Forest is gone, leaving only fragments as the last refuge for 60% of its endangered species. We're protecting these critical habitats and restoring essential ecological connections for survival.

Colombia: Averting Climate-Driven Extinctions

This incredibly vulnerable region is facing severe threats from commercial agriculture, driving rapid deforestation. Your donation helps us protect this critical biodiversity hotspot and potentially avert global climate-driven extinctions.

Sumatra: Securing a Refuge from Palm Oil's Damage

Relentless deforestation and expanding palm oil plantations threaten Earth's last refuge where Sumatran rhinos, elephants, tigers, and orangutans still coexist. Our urgent actions mitigate conflict and fight poaching to provide safe haven.

Cultivate Change: Donate to Land Restoration & Tree Planting

It’s thanks to our incredible donors that we can execute our vital work: purchasing degraded land and then planting native trees to transform it into thriving wildlife habitats. Your contribution directly enables us to restore critical ecosystems through reforestation, secure the future of endangered species, and powerfully address climate change. By joining us, you become a direct part of global tree planting initiatives, enhancing the planet’s biodiversity and ensuring the long-term preservation of animal species. Support our land acquisition and tree planting efforts today, and let’s build a healthier, more sustainable world together.
