When we come together, great things happen. Grounded in education and volunteerism, Para la Naturaleza’s mission has a direct impact on the local health of the island’s ecosystems and the surrounding communities, in addition to modeling mitigation efforts that affect climate change.
This unique conservation trust fuels a movement to inspire people to connect with nature and, even more important, to take an active role in conserving our natural and human ecosystems, as well as our historical heritage.
Para la Naturaleza protects over 39,000 acres of land in 81 natural protected areas around the islands of Puerto Rico thanks to the support from people like you. This ensures the conservation of the natural history of the islands.
Over 25,000 volunteers have taken part in our programs helping us with our conservation efforts through direct contact with nature and original scientific research.

We led initiatives in reforestation, the Puerto Rico Conserva project, and the restoration of the Puerto Rican parrot aviaries.
As we continue to face diverse and unstable scenarios, our only way to increase resiliency and deliver programmatic impact is adaptation.
