Andes, Chile
Mountain School Forest
Elevate and Educate with a Natural sanctuary in the Andes.
In a mountain village nestled in the Andes, a Miyawaki Forest is crucial for San Gabriel School. This overlooked institution urgently needs a forest to aid environmental education and shield against extreme weather. The project transforms conditions, adding beauty and a stimulating environment. The Miyawaki Forest encourages education, nature appreciation, and conservation.
Join us to enhance San Gabriel School, elevating education and aesthetics in the Andean heights.
