Fundraising disguised as real estate advertising. Rather than “donate,” viewers are asked to “buy” land, in the location they choose, at $10/acre, Rainforest Trust’s typical cost. (The land is deemed critical to one or more species’ survival. Donors do not receive actual title.) 100% of every dollar goes to actual land purchases. Operating expenses are separately funded.
