WHO ARE THE GUARDIANS OF THE FOREST?
Many reforestation projects have incredible SCIENTISTS – our project is filled with them!
Many projects have a lot of knowledge of the LOCAL WISDOM – we thrive on that!
Many projects are deeply ROOTED IN THE LOCAL COMMUNITY – it can´t get better than in our project!
Many projects have a large MARKETING TEAM – we definitly don`t have that. Our donations go directly into the ground!
Many projects have a lot of PROJECT MANAGERS, ADMINISTRATION AND FUNDRAISERS – we don`t want this. This project is direct. FROM PEOPLE TO PEOPLE!

We have, what most of the projects don`t have: Buddhist monks who are protecting the forest with 100% support of the local community. In Thailand Buddhist monks are holy and the Buddhist Thai Forest Tradition has preserved forest for centuries. Without funds, without marketing, without political or non-governmental support. Just by the power of practise to serve humanity and not harming nature.
