Lily near Ampefy in

Are you
looking for a different gift this Christmas...
If you
are fed up with giving or receiving yet more socks, toiletries or chocolates…
you can bring the gift of joy for someone in Madagascar? It's simple really...
visit our online shop and choose an 'Alternative Gift' like schooling, hot meals
or precious trees...something that is desperately needed in Madagascar. Then
you either buy it for your friend or you could ask your friend to buy an
alternative gift for you. That way you can be sure this year’s Christmas
present will be VERY much appreciated by you and your friends and especially by
the people in Madagascar whom you have chosen to help.
Just £10 could
buy 5 fruit trees and enough vegetable seeds for an average-sized school
garden. School gardens and fruit trees not only teach children cultivation
skills but also provide good nutrition to prevent them from getting diseases.
Alternatively,
you could also help increase and preserve Madagascar’s unique and highly rich
biodiversity through replanting primary forests in order to save its
distinctive flora and fauna.
Over 80%
of the species in Madagascar are endemic however; only 20% of its original
forest remains and its rich biodiversity is at risk.
As a
different gift this year you could help MfM’s partners to replant primary
forests and to save both the fauna and flora that provide the world with
important ecosystem services such as life-saving medicines.
£25 could fund the planting
and aftercare of 50 native
forest trees.
