Support the Source
Ekobius seeks donations for the practical foundations of the project: a nursery, field documentation, camp improvements and the proposed Centro de Acopio. Contributions should be directed toward a defined purpose with an agreed recipient, budget and record of use.
Four Ways to Make Progress
Support can help establish the shade-house nursery; equip field observation and species documentation; improve the visitor base; or develop receiving and post-harvest capacity. Sponsors may also propose equipment, technical assistance or university collaboration. Project scope and implementation costs are confirmed before an appeal is accepted.
Donate, Sponsor or Join
A donation supports an agreed purpose. Sponsorship can be linked to a defined deliverable. Honorary Huottuja Association membership is the US$1,000 participation model for prospective visitors. An investment involves separately documented economic and ownership terms. Choose the path that matches your intent.
A Clear Record of Your Contribution
Before payment, request the receiving organization, payment method, purpose, receipt arrangements and any conditions. Tax treatment depends on the recipient and applicable rules; no universal deduction is represented. Use the payment options above for a donation, or contact David Wright or the treasury officer to arrange a purpose-specific contribution. Include Ekobius in the payment reference where available. For allocation questions or a receipt request, contact treasurer@unifycoop.org with the transaction reference, amount and date.
Accountability We Want to Build
The development objective is to record funds received, purchases, project milestones and authorized outcomes. Reporting should protect personal information and sensitive community knowledge. Ask what evidence and updates are included in a proposed sponsorship before committing.
