Project Report | Sep 24, 2018
Together, We've Reached Our Goal!

By Audrey Thill | Project Manager

Here are some of the rosewood trees we'll plant.
Here are some of the rosewood trees we'll plant.

Hooray, we've reached and exceeded our fundraising goal for this project! We are so grateful that people like you care about the environment and are doing something to end illegal deforestation in Cambodia.

Your money will be used to:

  • Purchase 2000+ rosewood saplings.
  • Cover the cost of Cambodian youth and local forest community members to join this event.
  • Compensate the local community members for transporting 100 people, 2000 trees, and supplies into the jungle. 
  • Train the Prey Lang Community Network members in active nonviolence, leadership, and conflict resolution so that they can work effectively to stop illegal logging.

Over two years, you've helped us raise more than $10,000 to plant trees, transform the lives of youth who are now passionate about the environment, and support the local forest communities.

Over the last 3 years, we've planted over 6000 trees and will plant more than 2000 this weekend. The local forest communities, specifically the Prey Lang Community Network, will continue to care for them and will patrol the wider Prey Lang forest to document incidents of logging.

We'll have plenty of photos and reports from the field (forest!) in a short time. Be sure to watch this video in the meantime.

With Gratitude,

The Peace Bridges Team
