Success Stories

TiME's land purchase will expand Los Magnolios nature reserve and establish an essential biological corridor for threatened and endemic species like the Critically Endangered Handley’s Slender Opossum.

This land will be protected under a rights-of-nature legal structure, such that the land is a legal subject with rights to be protected and the Indigenous Embera Chami people are its legal guardians.

This sacred rainforest serves as the last home for the Indigenous Higa-onon people, as well as numerous threatened species, like the Critically Endangered Philippine Eagle.

Peroles is part of the Tropical Andes Biodiversity Hotspot, the most biologically diverse region on Earth. TiME’s successful crowdfunding has protected threatened species in Peroles, including the Critically Endangered Yellow-tailed Woolly Monkey, and increased the amount of protected land within the Condor-Kutuku conservation corridor.

Thanks to your generosity, TiME will expand the Tapichalaca reserve, enhancing connectivity between two of Ecuador's national parks and protecting the unique upper tropical cloud forest and páramo grassland habitat of many threatened species, including the Endangered Jocotoco Antpitta and Mountain Tapir.

TiME purchased and protected the last large tract of Chocó lowland forest in Ecuador, home to dozens of threatened species, including the Critically Endangered Great Green Macaw. This land purchase connected four protected areas with a total size of more than 3,000 km².

The Maasai Mara ecosystem has the highest density of wildlife in Kenya. Your donations allowed TiME to purchase land to create a migratory corridor and habitat for wildlife, including the iconic Masai giraffe, and prevent further human encroachment. 

Thanks to TiME's donors, the Endangered Clarke's Weaver and other threatened species will be now be protected in Dakatcha Woodland. Part of the East African Coastal Forests Global Hotspot, Dakatcha Woodland is a refuge for endangered species found at only a handful of other sites.

TiME's land purchase expanded the Serra Bonita Reserve in Brazil’s most endangered biome and the world’s second-most threatened hotspot. In addition to protecting many threatened species, this expansion will ensure the survival of predators that require large, unbroken territories, like the Puma and Harpy Eagle.

TiME's land purchase in the threatened Tumbes-Chocó-Magdalena biodiversity hotspot has expanded the El Silencio reserve. In addition to protecting threatened species, like the Critically Endangered Brown Spider Monkey, this expansion makes the reserve much more interesting as a destination for ecotourists and researchers.

TiME's purchase of a 5-acre plot on Turneffe Atoll has protected part of a global ecological hotspot for marine biodiversity. Turneffe Atoll faces numerous threats because of its close proximity to Belize City, especially unsustainable fishing practices, development and dredging, and the extraction of non-timber products.

TiME’s successful crowdfunding allowed the local community to expand and better protect an Amazonian conservation area. The original reserve’s horse-shoe shape made it harder to protect from illegal loggers, hunters and squatters. TiME purchased land in the interior U-shape and then signed it over to the local conservation organization.
