Ecodana is a non-profit (501(c)(3) tax exempt) social enterprise that supports green solutions to poverty issues in developing countries.
Most rural communities in developing nations are struggling to survive. Very often this poverty is caused by environmental degradation. If you and your family have created a livelihood from the forest and one day the forest is cut down, what are you to do? A major dam is built in China; downstream tens of millions of families are affected. We believe the only way to maintain the health of our planet is to help people with solutions that are self-empowering and environmentally friendly.
We must act now because our natural resources and the communities and wildlife that depend on them continue to be devastated.
The price we will pay for inaction will soon be too great.
GIVE – CONNECT – FEEL GOOD
We want to create new possibilities. Imagine a world where a farmer creates her own compost and doesn’t have to depend on toxic chemicals for fertilizing the food her children will eat, where families create methane gas from animal manure and use it as fuel for cooking and lighting instead of firewood taken from the forest. Imagine a world where people feed themselves without having to endanger animals and plants close to extinction. This is our vision at Ecodana.
AN ALTERNATIVE TO LARGE INSTITUTIONAL GIVING
Ecodana chooses small grassroots projects that help local organizations in developing nations establish green solutions for very real needs in their communities.
We match up people like you who want to make a difference with great projects, and let’s you stay in touch with their progress as they come to fruition.
For the price of a coffee and a donut, you can change people’s lives and help the environment, while learning about another culture.
We propose the projects, you make them happen.
Together, we make change possible.
