How can I help?
You can show your support of several ways.
- Translation.
If you are a native speaker of another language I could use assistance in translating an educational document. The document, which explains the importance of rain forests, is currently available in more than 20 languages and is meant for free distribution. I also need help translating environmental news articles. For more details, please visit www.mongabay.com/help.html
- Buying through Amazon links.
You can use the following Amazon link to buy books, music and other merchandise from Amazon.com. Each time you use this link to make a purchase a small amount (1-5% depending on the item) will go towards maintaining the site. You can also take a look at the recommended books page for book ideas.
- Direct contributions.
Direct contributions are accepted but I encourage you to instead support organizations like Amazon Conservation Team, Aliança da Terra, Survival International, Health In Harmony, and Wildlife Direct. If you do wish to contribute to mongabay, please note that contributions are not tax-deductible, since payments will be going to an individual (Rhett). Payment can be made using Amazon, Paypal, or by making an arrangement with me via email.
- Mongabay gear.
You can buy mongabay.com and wildmadagascar.org apparel. A portion of each sale goes to the site. The most popular design is:
