Softmatter x Rainforest Protectors of Sri Lanka
We partnered with Rainforest Protectors of Sri Lanka, a non-profit environmental organization with a mission to protect the last remaining rainforests and threatened ecosystems in Sri Lanka, including Sinharaja and Kanneliya rainforests, through conservation projects and environmental activism primarily driven through volunteer support.
The Softmatter team engaged in a reforestation exercise to help reforest 2.5 acres of land in Rakwana Hills in Sri Lanka. This is an ecologically important habitat bordering the Sinharaja World Heritage Rainforest.
This is our first step towards preserving and restoring habitats to help restore biodiversity.
