WWF-US Launches Amazon Rainforest Rescue Fund

$10 Million in Aid to Combat Devastating Wildfires

Immediate Relief for Affected Wildlife

Thanks to the generous support of donors, WWF-US has launched a $10 million Amazon Rainforest Rescue Fund to provide immediate aid to the region amidst devastating wildfires. The fund will support essential costs associated with distributing resources and providing assistance to affected wildlife and habitats.

The Amazon rainforest, home to an estimated one in 10 species on Earth, is currently experiencing its worst wildfires in a decade. The blazes are threatening the survival of the rainforest's unique biodiversity and the livelihoods of local communities.

The WWF-US rescue team is working tirelessly to provide water, seeds, and other resources to surviving animals. They are also working with local partners to establish temporary shelters and provide medical care. The fund will enable WWF-US to continue and expand these critical efforts.
