and thus

It all began with an enthusiasm for forests with huge trees - today, Wilderness International consists of three sister foundations: one in Peru, Canada and Germany. With one big goal: to protect the last unique forest and wilderness areas of the world forever.
To achieve this, we purchase wilderness areas, legally secure with an entry in the land registry, and protect them for the future.
The purchases are refinanced through donations. These also ensure the long-term protection of the areas. They also enable environmental education projects and research into CO2-storage and biodiversity.
We are a committed and flexible organization - always striving to use our resources as effectively as possible.
Jungle giants draped in lianas, mysterious jaguars and playful monkeys - our protected areas in the Peruvian Amazon rainforest.
Sleeping grizzlies, howling wolves, majestic eagles and gigantic trees - our wilderness conservation area on the west coast of Canada.
In Canada, good legal security helps us, as well as the legal situations and sanctions that even prohibit trespassing, as well as the cultural and historical importance of property.
In Peru, we have additionally started a forest guardian program with local people. To ensure long-term protection, we also have several other measures in place. In general, we visit the areas on regular expeditions to check on them. We also work with local partners who inform us of any irregularities if necessary. The donations per square meter also already include the costs for property taxes.
Like no other, the legal form of the foundation allows a (charitable) purpose to be realized permanently and independently of outside interests, thus achieving the desired effects in the long term. It is thus the most long-term organizational construct currently known. Not even states, companies or national parks are designed for such a long term. This makes the foundation the only one that is oriented toward the lifespan of the ecosystems we protect.
There are no further obligations for you. The donation is one-time, and enables us as a foundation to ensure the long-term protection of the area. The sponsorship is a symbolic one. The forest area remains the property of the Foundation.
You will receive the certificate digitally as a PDF by email. So you can decide for yourself whether you want to print it out and in which size.
Please enter your data everywhere in the form. This is important for the payment of the donation and so that only you receive all the information and the donation certificate. Then check the box "Give away/individualize certificate". There you can enter the name of the person who will receive the gift, so that it appears on the certificate.
You as the donor will receive the donation receipt. We will send all information and files to you.
