  30 Years of Service

Earth  Endowment Micro-Grants

    Thirty years ago a handful of Amaterra members set up a restricted fund.  The early intent was to someday purchase a small parcel of land to set aside as some type of nature preserve.  However, this was a worthy goal that ended up on the "back burner" because of our other projects.  Over the years, without further contributions, the fund grew to a point that we were able to use its annual increase to fund small grass-roots environmental projects. 

    The degradation or the improvement of the environment knows no political boundaries.  An illustration of this is how the depletion of rain forest impacts the quality of the air we breath no matter where we are.  Because of this, Amaterra has not limited its effort to the United States. Our contributions in Mexico and Cambodia have enabled us to have a much greater impact than similar contributions for projects in the developed countries.
