Donate to CREE

To ensure the ongoing success of projects, CREE relies on financial donations from a range of sources. Donors can choose to support a specific conservation and development project and CREE ensures funds are channeled directly into work the donor sees as most needed. You can find information on specific projects here.

CREE will work individually with donations at the level of 'Sponsor' and above to tailor your gift to your specific interest and project. The highest donor per year will receive the honor of the title of 'Aldo Leopold Land Steward', in recognition of his/her actions in memory of the great conservation leader whose revolutionary views towards taking a land ethic beyond protected area boundaries greatly enriched the field of ecology and human-environment relations.

Countries

CREE works in biologically diverse areas, which we define as any tract of land rich in wildlife or natural resources that may or may not be around a protected area. This includes lands in and around national parks and reserves.

However, 90% of the terrestrial earth is NOT under the protected area system. These areas have resources that communities can derive benefits from in a sustainable manner. Often, they experience acute political strife and turmoil and receive little attention by mainstream NGO’s. In IUCN terms, CREE seeks to fund projects that fall anywhere between Category I (Strict Nature Reserve/Wilderness Area) and Category IV (Managed Resource Protected Area). However, we place emphasis on multi-use protected areas.

Through our vast connection of professional colleagues in the developing world, we have put together a portfolio of projects which span Latin America, Asia and Africa.
