World Rainforest Fund, founded in 1984, is a micro nonprofit in the Environment sector that reported $19K in total revenue in fiscal year 2025. Revenue fell 45% from the prior year — a significant decline worth monitoring. Expenses of $32K exceeded revenue, resulting in a 67% operating deficit.

Mission

To save rainforest through public education and by empowering indigenous people of the rainforest by giving them grants to fund projects they carry out to save their rainforest homes.

Program Service Accomplishments

Program 1

Expenses: $12,000 Revenue: $0

Grant to Go Conscious Earth to hire office staff to help oversee the daily operations of the reserves we helped set up in the past in the Democratic Republic of the Congo run by the local people and recognized by the government. These reseves protect the Pygmy and other indigenous tribes and the bonobo, a relative of the chimpanzee and the closest relative of humans. The rainforests there are a carbon sink that stores large quantities of peat, which stores carbon in great amounts. Hence, preserving this forest greatly helps alleviate global warming.

Program 2

Expenses: $10,000 Revenue: $0

Grant to Earth Guardians in the African nation of Togo to restore a destroyed rainforest. This also funded the workers on this project, giving them employment, so they did not need to destroy...

Program 3

Expenses: $10,000 Revenue: $0

Grant to Khamai Foundation to expand the Pitala Reserve, doubling its size, adding 152 hectares (376 acres), in Ecuador, that we helped set up in the past. The expansion of this reserve protects the rainforest from the threat of goldminers, a proposed destructive raod, and ranchers. This rainforest was found to have among the highest biodiversity in the world by the Map of Life, the world's leading biodiversity survey of scientists. The reserve protects an estimated 400 species of fish, 300 species of reptiles and amphibians, hundreds of species of mammals, and over 100,000 species of invertebrates. The expansion of it also protects the endangered spotted rocket frog.
