What Rainforest Action Network has to say about Kantza...

Update #3 · Jun 16, 2012 · comment

Our friends at Rainforest Action Network have written an inspiring article featuring Amazon Voice and Kantza.  

"Amazon Voice, a great new NGO that is working directly with the local Amazon communities based on a foundation of reciprocity and mutual respect, is giving Tzama, an Indigenous Amazon native from the Tawasap Shuar community in Ecuador, a chance to tell his people’s story, his way." - RAN

Please take a moment to "like" the story and share it with friends.  If we can have a strong next couple of weeks, we'll be in a good place to make our final push, meet our goal, and help amplify the voice of the Amazon.
