Overview

Mission

What it reported doing in 2025

1. Amazon shelteramazon shelter is dedicated to rescuing and rehabilitating wounded and orphaned animals affected by the destructive forces of logging, gold mining, and road expansion in the amazon rainforest. The shelter provides critical care to animals that would otherwise face certain death or captivity, with a special focus on species such as howler monkeys, spider monkeys, and other native wildlife. In 2025, junglekeepers supported amazon shelter by funding its operational costs, helping to build and establish its first-ever on-site veterinary clinic, and coordinating volunteer outreach to expand the shelter's capacity to care for injured and orphaned animals. Through this partnership, junglekeepers aims to enhance the shelter's ability to rehabilitate and eventually reintroduce animals back into their natural habitats, contributing to the overall protection and restoration of the amazon ecosystem.expenses: $33,0002. Cocinando y conservandococinando y conservando ("cooking and conserving") is a community environmental education program run by junglekeepers in partnership with indigenous communities along the las piedras river. The program uses sustainable cooking workshops, nutritional education, and cultural exchange activities to engage community members, particularly women and youth, in conservation values rooted in their own traditions and forest-based food systems. Quarterly workshops address food preparation using sustainably harvested forest products, reinforce the connection between healthy ecosystems and community nutrition, and support the transmission of traditional ecological knowledge from elders to younger generations. The program complements junglekeepers' broader community partnership model, in which indigenous people are not passive beneficiaries but active co-creators of conservation strategy. Cocinando y conservando helps build lasting community investment in protecting the rainforest as a living resource and cultural homeland.expenses: $8,0003.conservation storytelling and engagement programthe program focuses on producing high-quality content to raise awareness and drive fundraising efforts for junglekeepers' conservation initiatives. This program involves creating compelling stories about our work, the ecosystems we protect, and the species we safeguard, mostly via video. These stories highlight the urgency of our mission, the impact of our efforts, and the critical need for support. Junglekeepers utilizes these media across multiple platforms, including social media, our website, and targeted campaigns, to engage donors, partners, and the public. The goal is to inspire action, attract financial support, and expand our network of advocates. By strategically distributing this content, we aim to increase visibility for the las piedras corridor and our ongoing conservation work, ensuring that our message reaches a broad audience and continues to make a lasting impact.expenses: $200,250
