By planting the oak trees the students helped create an ecologically diverse forest in Germany and at the same time they helped protect the Peel River Watershed in the Western Arctic of Canada
 

Plant trees for the future

Main objectives of the run

Wilderness International will use 50 percent of the funds raised to purchase and protect pristine areas in Canada’s unique West Coast Temperate Rainforest. This guarantees immediate and sustainable protection from clear-cut logging, mining and other forms of environmental destruction. Wilderness International commits the remaining 50 percent to development and implementation of regional and international conservation-oriented education and projects for interested and motivated students!

Δ Adopt a piece of the Rainforest 

Working together, we will create a large conservation area in the Coastal Rainforest of Canada. The Foundation, schools and students in partnership with the Cowichan Tribes and Wilderness International Canada all become stewards/protectors of this area. 

Δ Regional Projects

20 percent of the funds collected are available for any environmental project chosen at the participating schools. 

Δ Conservation of the Arctic

Wilderness International, in partnership with the Gwich’in First Nation is committed to protecting this region for the benefit of us all! The First Nation peoples of northern Canada have the largest contiguous natural areas on earth! It is a place where with a conscientious and immediate effort we can achieve sustainable and significant results!
