Our commitment
10% to the Rainforest
Empowering Indigenous Peoples
We recognize that the struggle of indigenous people is a collective responsibility, and we are committed to contributing in every way we can.
To honor this commitment, we devote 10% of our profits to support various projects in the Amazon Rainforest that uplift indigenous communities.
As we grow, we intend to expand our reach and support numerous other incredible initiatives throughout the Amazon cultivating a culture of forest preservation, strengthening ancestral traditions, and promoting the socio-economic autonomy of the indigenous people.
Together, we can create a meaningful impact and transform the lives of many indigenous communities.
By supporting Amazonian SkinFood and our products, you're contributing to a brighter future for these families. Every purchase makes a difference.
A Journey to Remember: Celebrating Progress and Building Connections
In February of 2023 we had the incredible opportunity to travel to the Amazon Rainforest and visit the Ni Yuxibu village to celebrate the opening of the school we helped fund. This unforgettable journey allowed us to:
- π Witness firsthand the impact of our efforts on the community
- π€ Connect with the villagers and learn about their lives and needs
- πΏ Explore the rich biodiversity of the Amazon Rainforest
This experience was invaluable in deepening our understanding of the challenges faced by indigenous communities and identifying ways we can make a positive impact in their lives for years to come. By immersing ourselves in their world, we're better equipped to tailor our projects to their unique needs and aspirations.
2023: Building a Indigenous School
In the past year, we successfully raised $3,100 USD (R$15,500) to help build a school in the Amazon Rainforest.Now operational, this school is:
π« Educating over 60 students
π Teaching Portuguese, English, and Math
π± Preserving Huni Kuin traditions for the next generation
ππΎ With our contribution and the donation of dozens of people and organizations, in 2022 an important step was taken for the development of the Ni Yuxibu village community and for the strengthening of the Huni Kuin legacy for humanity: The first stage of the implementation of the Keneya School was completed.
2024: Clean Water for 250 Indigenous
The current well - only goes 3 meters down, causing it to dry up quickly, and during summer months it goes completely dry. They go back to drink polluted river water. Due to not having drinking water, the quality of life has dropped. During our last visit, it was reported that 50% of the kids have chronic diarrhea
This vital initiative will:
π§ Provide clean, safe drinking water for 200 residents
π‘ Elevate living standards and transform lives
πͺ Empower the community to overcome obstacles
