...or a bag of fish
Support Las Lianas while honoring people
you care about!
Make someone
proud by giving 1000 fish
in their name, or by sponsoring a
fishpond on their behalf. Your gift will allow Las Lianas and our
Secoya partners
to help more rainforest families start farming fish while providing a
meaningful and attractive present for someone you care about. Here’s
how it
works.
·
A donation of
$35 buys 350 fish. These are young
fish a family can raise and begin harvesting in 8 months. You’ll get a
letter
of acknowledgement and we’ll mail (to you or to the recipient, your
choice) an
attractive certificate describing the gift and our program, with a
salutation
of your choosing (up to 25 words).
·
A donation of
$50 buys 500 fish. Think of it
this way: for just $50 you can provide 1 to 2 fish meals a week to a
family of
five for an entire year. In addition to the certificate described
above, we
will include a 5x7 color photo from our fish-farming program.
·
A donation of
$100 buys 1000 fish. Your
recipient will get a certificate, a photo, and a complementary
rainforest-seed necklace.
·
For $500, you
can sponsor a fishpond. The
donation covers material costs, transport, and training for the
beneficiary
family. Your friend or family member will receive a certificate and
framed
photo symbolizing the present. Later in the year, we will send them a
report
with pictures and a description of the beneficiary family.
To order, send your tax-deductible donation and tell us the gift you want, whom it is for, and where to send it. You can also include a salutation of up to 25 words which will be included on the certificate sent to your friend or family member.
For other
presents, consider some of the beautiful
hammocks and beaded necklaces from the Amazon that we are offering.
