A Moment of Gratitude from the Amazon

November 26, 2025

On this day of giving thanks, we pause to honor the people who make meaningful work possible. For us, that includes you.

Across the Bolivian and Peruvian Amazon, our partners wanted to share something simple yet profound: their gratitude. Today, we bring you a short video with messages from forest stewards, Indigenous leaders, forest producers, and families whose daily efforts keep the Amazon resilient. Their words come directly from the field and speak for themselves.

Why Your Support Matters

Because of supporters like you, communities across the Amazon are building sustainable livelihoods that keep forests standing. You help ensure that local and Indigenous leaders have the tools needed to defend their territories. You help strengthen the technology and networks needed to confront the greatest threats to the forest. And you help safeguard one of the world’s most vital ecosystems for generations to come.

Your generosity doesn’t just protect trees—it protects opportunities, dignity, and dreams.

A Message From the Amazon to You

We invite you to take a moment to watch the video below and hear gratitude directly from our partners on the ground. Their voices say it better than we ever could.

From All of Us, With Thanks

As you gather with loved ones today, know that your compassion stretches far beyond your table. It reaches deep into the Amazon, where your support is helping build thriving and resilient communities and forests.

Thank you for standing with the Amazon—today and every day.

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Amazon Conservation.
