Help us build a gravel road to and for our amazon sanctuary

Donation protected
Dear friends, nature lovers and supporters,

We are reaching out to you with a special request that could help us keep our dream alive and make our Amazon nature center more accessible for all. Our Madre Selva Resort, located deep in the heart of the Amazon rainforest, offers a sanctuary of preservation and cultural heritage. A peaceful, eco-friendly environment where visitors can connect with nature, natural medicine, experience art, see wildlife, and enjoy the tranquility of this breathtaking environment. Also possibility to work together on our project of preservation and planting garden of medicinal trees and plants.

However, there’s one major obstacle standing in the way: our current road to the resort. Right now, it’s only a muddy, uneven path, crossing trough the jungle making it incredibly difficult for visitors, staff, and supplies to travel to the center, especially during the rainy season.

Why This Road is Crucial
A proper made equal and gravel based road will significantly improve accessibility and make all the difference in:

Visitor Experience: A smooth, safe road will allow our guests to arrive comfortably and enjoy the full experience of our resort without the challenges posed by the current road.

Sustainability: A solid road will allow us to bring in sustainable resources and reduce our environmental impact, which is vital in an area as delicate as the Amazon.

Staff and Operations: Our dedicated staff and supplies need reliable access to the center to ensure smooth daily operations. A gravel road will make it possible to better maintain the property and serve everyone who stays here

Visions and Projects
We are building a ‘give back to nature’ project in balancing the amazon forest in her natural habitat. As our center is only 3 hectares based on 140 hectars land we have, the most part is based on the intention of preserving the untouched jungle and its inhabitants. Therefore- we envision more projects for our future to buy more land to preserve, be a center for education about nature and natural medicines. We are working on reforestation, planting trees and plants back in the jungle to keep the medicinal library alive and flourish.

What We Need
To build this 5 km gravel road, we need to raise [35.000 €]. This amount will cover the costs of materials, labor and the construction process. The road will not only make it easier for guests to reach us, but also for the community that live around in the nearby area. It will also allow us to further develop our resort and improve the experience for everyone.

How You Can Help
We’re asking for your support to help us make this project a reality. Every donation, no matter the size, will go directly toward building the road and ensuring that our community can continue to be in service for all we provide - to mother nature and human kind.
If you are unable to contribute financially, sharing this campaign with your network would mean the world to us as well.

Thank you for taking the time to read our story. Your support will help us make our vision come true - of an accessible, sustainable, and eco-friendly centre for healing and growth in harmony with the amazon forest.

With gratitude and appreciation,
