The Rainforest Foundation UK

The Rainforest Foundation is a charity in the UK. It campaigns for the preservation of the world's rainforests and the rights of the people who live there. There are other Rainforest Foundations in the USA and Norway.

The musician Sting and his wife set up the charity in 1989 after they saw the unacceptable destruction of the Amazon rainforest. Some farmers were wiping out large parts of the forest, which is the home of indigenous people. The Rainforest Foundation thinks that indigenous people are very important to the rainforests, and the charity is going to carry on its work with them in the future.

The Rainforest Foundation has grown over the last twenty years and it now supports projects in different countries including Brazil, Peru, Cameroon and Uganda. Since it first started, the charity has helped local people to protect and save more than 100,000 square kilometres of the rainforest in a number of countries.

Every year, supporters of the charity join in a number of big events to collect money. This year, they're going to run the London Marathon again. If you look at The Rainforest Foundation webpage, you'll find information about their latest events and campaigns. You can also sign up for an email newsletter.
