Volunteering
Protecting the Ecuadorian Amazon for Future Generations
The Ecuadorian Amazon is one of the most biodiverse ecosystems in the world and an invaluable home for the Kichwa Añangu Community. However, conserving this region faces major challenges due to deforestation, climate change, and biodiversity loss.
The Sacha Muskuy Foundation believes that volunteering is one of the most powerful tools to create a positive impact. Our Volunteering Program offers the opportunity to work alongside the community in conservation, education, empowerment, and social well-being projects, leaving a meaningful mark in the heart of the rainforest.
We believe that collaboration between volunteers and the community creates a lasting impact and strengthens the connection between people and nature.
