In January Jenny Weber raised $16000 to fund her full-time work as a forest advocate.
She says:
“After 8 months of continuing my work with the unique opportunity of funds to support a living wage as an activist, these funds have been exhausted.
“I will relaunch an appeal for funding through a crowd-funding request online soon to seek financial support for my ongoing work as a forest advocate.
“I will let you know when I go live.”
