By donating the value of your old car to the Rainforest Foundation you can make a real difference to the lives of forest people around the world and help ensure that rainforests do not fall into the hands of logging companies.
Every year an area of rainforest the size of England and Wales is cut down.
This leaves local people homeless, drives animals and plants to extinction and releases more CO2 emissions, which cause climate change, than all of the world’s planes, trains and cars.
Your donation can help the The Rainforest Foundation tackle deforestation locally and globally. Locally it helps forest communities to gain land rights, challenge logging companies and manage forests for their own wellbeing and protection of their environment. Globally it campaigns to influence national and international laws to protect rainforests and their inhabitants.
Since it was founded in 1989 the Rainforest Foundation has helped indigenous and local communities to protect more than 12 million hectares of rainforest.
“The Rainforest Foundation UK would like to say a massive thank you to Charity Car for enabling their customers to donate the value of their old car to our important cause. As an environmental charity, we love that the scheme allows supporters to recycle their car whilst raising much-needed funds for our vital work. We are hugely appreciative of our decade-long partnership with Charity Car, which has helped us to increase our impact to the rainforests and inhabitants in the Congo Basin and Peruvian Amazon.”
Louise Cordery, Fundraising Coordinator at The Rainforest Foundation UK
