Visiting orphanages

Pack for a Purpose does not condone visiting orphanages, as this can often lead to negative impacts on children. The accommodation or tour company working with the orphanage will deliver the supplies in a coordinated and respectful way so that the children can benefit from them. Your generosity is not diminished because you do not interact with the children.

Project Description

The School of the Amazon offers free workshops that aim to put children from ages 8 through 10 years old in direct contact with the Amazon rainforest. Despite living in the Amazon biome, many children do not know the forest and the project aims to create a positive awareness of the beauty of this ecosystem. The one-day workshops are conducted in a forest fragment preserve. Students perform walks, observations of fauna and ora, do artistic activities, and observe group dynamics in the forest, making their environment more familiar and fun.
