Arbol International We know the importance of the Amazonian forests, it is time to give a forceful answer. Arbol International philosophy. www.arbolinternational.org

Jorge and Ruth Zuniga decided on our trip to the Amazon to support children knowing that their reality is from a 4th world country, for example, 70% anemia in 5-year-old children. As the years went by, we realized that the effort to educate and feed them could be useless since young people, when they reached their majority, lacked opportunities. We began to develop micro-business opportunities and

we have realized that even being profitable, poultry and multi-level commercialization micro-businesses are not enough to get out of poverty. Young people need access to technical or higher education, food rich in protein, and land to build their houses. This is how Arbol international saw that the only way to break the cycle of poverty is by investing in timber trees such as the Bolaina Blanca with very high economic returns in 7 years, the guava in 3 years, or the banana with income in just 6 months. Studying the effects of reforestation and economic aid to the Amazonian population, we learned about the great benefits of reforestation. This will bring a regional ecosystem reactivating rains and rivers as well as increasing the almost destroyed biodiversity of flora and fauna so necessary for the control of global warming and the preservation of water and rains throughout the world.

Our Story

Why Arbol International The Ucayali River begins in the southern portion of the Andes and runs all the way through the Andes until it empties into the Amazon River. Throughout its course, the Ucayali River gives life to thousands of acres of trees (ARBOL): the home for many plants and wildlife. One of the plants that grows along this river is the Coca-leaf, the main ingredient of co***ne which brings money but also corruption, destruction and death. At the same time the river brings thousands of possibilities to grow Arboles (trees) that we believe not only will impact greatly in the environment but also bring hope to the people of the Amazon as they gain a crop which profits them monetarily but without violence, corruption, and narco-terrorism. The population around the Ucayali face many challenges such as violence, poverty, and ignorance. This has left them with tremendous difficulty to get a productive life without working in undesired jobs like prostitution or Coca farming, or working as or with drug dealers, terrorists, and criminals. What We Can Do Given the opportunity to own land and thus have a sustainable future, the Peruvians have the potential to escape the abuse and terror of drug cartels and terrorist groups. This opportunity will further diminish the control and power that these groups have over the poor, and will prevent them from using this poverty to their advantage. Our goal is to educate America about the difficulties that these people face on a day to day basis and to provide the people of the Ucayali River with the education and the means to harness the potential prosperity and hope that the Ucayali River can bring. As obedient followers of our Lord Jesus Christ we have focused our work for 2013 and 2014 on helping the orphanage of the city of Pucallpa, 'Aldea San Jaun', which is owned and run by the local governent. There are many needs to fill for these little ones but we are guided to So please join us not only with money but involve yourself and your organization for a long term commitment. One of the largest impacts you can make is by donating. Every dollar gives the poorest of the poor a hand up, not a hand out.
