Empower Conservation: Donate Today!
Vanasa Conservation Foundation works to safeguard biodiversity, restore ecological harmony, and promote the importance of conserving our precious wildlife and ecosystems for future generations.
As a charity, Vanasa Conservation Foundation relies on donations from the public to fund our work. Your financial support helps us protect habitats, save endangered species, and raise awareness about wildlife. By donating, you’re playing a vital role in preserving India’s diverse biodiversity and ensuring a sustainable future for all.
INR 3,500 can provide wildlife awareness material for 5 students.
Empowering students with wildlife awareness is vital for nurturing environmental stewardship and biodiversity conservation. Our student kits, comprising informative booklets, worksheets, stickers, bookmarks, and postcards, equip young minds to champion wildlife conservation. With this knowledge, they can make informed decisions that positively impact ecosystems. Understanding the interconnectedness of all species fosters empathy and a sense of responsibility towards the planet. Through learning about ecosystem balance, wildlife threats, and human roles in habitat preservation, students develop a lifelong appreciation for nature. This cultivates sustainable practices and ethical behavior, ensuring a harmonious coexistence with diverse species. Your support in providing these kits fosters a generation committed to the long-term health of our planet.
INR 5,000 can provide essential items to individuals / families from communities living alongside wildlife.
India boasts a rich diversity of wildlife, yet only a small fraction of its land—less than 7%—is officially protected for these precious animals. Coexistence is the key to the future. By sharing our spaces with these creatures, we pave the way for a harmonious balance and minimize conflicts. The essence of wildlife conservation lies in our ability to peacefully cohabit with our fellow inhabitants of this planet. It transcends the boundaries of protected and non-protected areas, encompassing even specialized ecosystems often overlooked by traditional conservation efforts.
Communities living alongside wildlife play a pivotal role in conservation efforts, yet their needs often remain unheard and unmet, leading to potential conflicts. By identifying and supporting underprivileged individuals from these communities, we bridge the gap between their needs and the resources necessary for peaceful coexistence. These donations not only address immediate needs but also foster a sense of unity and collaboration between local communities and conservationists on the ground. Together, we can eliminate barriers, prevent conflicts, and create a future where humans and wildlife thrive in harmony.
INR 10,000 can fund an awareness event to inform and motivate people about Slender Loris in India.
Your support will catalyze an impactful awareness event dedicated to the conservation of the Slender Loris in India. These captivating creatures, often overlooked, play a vital role in our ecosystem. Through this event, we aim to shed light on the significance of the Slender Loris, its conservation needs, and how individuals can actively contribute to raise support.
Awareness events serve as critical platforms for fostering an understanding and inspiring people to take action for biodiversity conservation. In today’s rapidly changing world, where habitats are increasingly threatened, such initiatives are more important than ever. By supporting this event, you’re not only helping conserve a species but also igniting a movement of collective responsibility towards our natural world.
Vanasa’s Loris Life project is aimed at documenting and understanding the ecology and behaviour of lorises primarily in human dominated landscapes. Doing so will enable us to prioritise areas for loris conservation outside protected areas. The data generated from this project will be an important step in devising such a plan and aiding the conservation of nocturnal primates of India.
INR 15,000 can provide sponsorship for a student to attend a field training workshop at Vanasa.
Field training is essential for early career conservationists, bridging theoretical knowledge with practical skills. It offers hands-on experience in addressing environmental challenges, fostering problem-solving abilities, adaptability, and a profound appreciation for ecosystem complexities. Immersion in real-world scenarios cultivates a connection to nature and local communities, enriching cultural understanding and resilience. Your support empowers emerging conservationists with the tools and skills needed to tackle unpredictable conservation issues effectively.
