The rainforest allows us to live.

We destroy trees, which are the foundation of nature. And in the end, nature will destroy us.

Towards the Amazon rainforest
Reforestation project in Peru and Ecuador

The story began on a ranch in Spain, in the picturesque region of Andalusia, in the Sierra Nevada, surrounded by olivares.

That place was Rancho Caballo Blanco, where I lived for six months.

The ranch is home to 24 horses, six cats,s y and three dogs , and belongs to a woman who founded a non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing abused and abandoned horses.

Horses that once suffered under bad owners receive a new life here and the opportunity to find people who truly care for them.

They receive kind, dedicated, and professional care. Thanks to this, they can find a new home and finally feel safe.

The organization welcomes volunteers and tourists who contribute financially to their well-being — and this is where my journey began.

It was there that I understood how powerful human kindness can be.

And it was there that I was contacted by people from another part of the world — from the places where I now live — who invited me to join a project focused on protecting and restoring the Amazon rainforest in Peru and Ecuador.

Because these forests allow us to live. They allow us to breathe.

And when we protect nature, it protects us.

This is the beginning of my mission.

WHO IS BEHIND THE PROJECT

Behind the TreeHope project, there are no corporations or large organizations.

It is a personal initiative by an ordinary person who decided to act after seeing how rapidly rainforests — and the life within them — are disappearing.

The project was created in collaboration with Indigenous peoples of the Amazon.

Specifically, with the Harakbut people in Peru and the Kichwa communities in Ecuador, who are the natural guardians of the forest and maintain a deep connection to this land, passed down from generation to generation.

WHY THIS SUPPORT MAKES SENSE

Indigenous peoples of the rainforest are not its enemies.
They are part of it.

By supporting this personal initiative, we help protect not only Amazonian trees,but the entire ecosystem.

Animals, water, soil, and the climate on which we all depend.

Real impact

This is not just a symbol.
Each planted tree represents the restoration of nature and cleaner, healthier air for our lives.

Endangered species

In this project, we focus on reforestation with native Amazonian tree species such as Amazon cedar, mahogany, lupuna, shihuahuaco, and cacao. These species promote biodiversity, retain carbon, protect the soil, and hold deep cultural significance for local Indigenous communities.

Trees planted thanks to your support

Each planted tree represents a real commitment to the rainforest.

Thanks to your help, more forest is protected every day and local communities are supported.

You can contribute through a voluntary donation, and if you wish, your name can appear next to the tree you helped plant.

It is also possible to participate anonymously.

Questions & Answers

Do you have more questions? Feel free to contact us by email at info@treehope.help and we will be happy to respond.

How is TreeHope different from other reforestation projects?

TreeHope is a personal initiative created in collaboration with local communities and Indigenous peoples of the Amazon.

Each planted tree has a real impact on the forest, supports local inhabitants, and protects biodiversity. This is not symbolic planting — it is concrete restoration of nature.

How long does it take for a tree to become strong and no longer require care?

Young trees in the Amazon usually need between 3 and 7 years of care before becoming strong enough to grow on their own.

Some fast-growing species can adapt in 2–3 years, while others, especially the more sensitive ones, require longer-term care by the local communities.

Which species benefit from new tree planting?

Tree planting restores the natural habitat of many species, including endangered ones: birds (parrots, toucans, hummingbirds), mammals (monkeys, tapirs, sloths, jaguars), amphibians, reptiles, and insects (bees, butterflies).

Each tree contributes to biodiversity, the connectivity of forest areas, and a healthy ecosystem, also benefiting these endangered species.

How can I get involved?

You can participate personally in tree planting or contribute voluntarily to support planting and caring for the Amazon rainforest.
