Donating

Climates is eager to expand its reforestation efforts across numerous hectares of land, and we’re seeking contributors eager to join our beautiful, green project. We invite supporters who are not just interested in financial contributions, but also wish to witness the impact of their specific donations. Through options like our live webcam feed or, for those who prefer, a personal visit. You can observe the growth of trees on the land. From the Finca you can see the planted trees, and via beautiful hiking trails you can admire the new and old nature and the planting we have done with your contribution.

You can find all relevant donating information by browsing this page. You’ll also find a direct ‘donate now’ button at the end of this page. Should you miss anything, please do contact us via the contact page.
