Haribon: Planting the seeds of hope.

For only P900 a year, or P75 month, or P2.466 a day you can be a member of Haribon and help us protect and conserve our country's natural wealth.

Hatched in 1972, Haribon is a pioneer in the crusade to stop environmental degradation and start ecological regeneration. Haribon has taken up the fight to maintain the integrity of the Philippine ecosystem in the halls of congress and the hills of the Philippine countryside. Haribon practically gave birth to the environmental preservation movement in the Philippines and was instrumental in advocating the total log ban since 1988. But, as one looks at our denuded mountainsides and sits through yet another flood, it is obvious that the job is far from over.

You can help us conserve our country's natural wealth by becoming a member of Haribon. Your contribution through your fees as a member will go a long way towards giving future generations of Filipinos a chance to enjoy nature, a chance to enjoy the Philippines' wealth of life.
