Helping Is Easy

"My experience with the trees has been truly beautiful... For me, the restoration has been a form of healing. A healing for our territories that have been cruelly deforested by human hands. So, as women who give life, we continue with that mindset, bringing life back to the trees. Here, we've restored several plots, aqueducts, streams, and water sources. It's incredibly satisfying for us to be able to contribute our small part to the world."- María Isabel Tabla

"Here, we've been raising awareness in the community...

"Our group currently consists of 6 women, some of whom are single mothers... The Impulso Verde Foundation has been training us, teaching us how to propagate all the plant material we produce in the nursery, starting from seeds. We produce approximately 5,000 species per germination bed. Today, we are cultivating about 40 varieties of native species from our region... These have been entirely beneficial for our agriculture, some for our own consumption, and others for nourishing the entire ecosystem, including the birds, animals, flora, and fauna in our region."- Camila Moreno
