Financial Support
Earth defenders play a vital role in safeguarding the environment from activities that harm ecosystems, wildlife, and natural resources. These defenders often work in challenging conditions with very limited resources, facing opposition from powerful interests.
Contributing financially to Earth defenders empowers local communities to take action enabling them to access essential resources, mobilize support, and create lasting change from the ground up.
The Earth Defenders Toolkit community has setup an Open Collective to help raise money for specific projects and resources requested by Earth Defenders communities that are apart of the Earth Defenders Toolkit network.
