There has never been a more exciting time to become a Board Member of Planet Rehab!
In 2019 we relocated to Panama to focus on creating Reforestation Projects and work with Endangered Species! We are very proud of the work that we are accomplishing. In the past 1.5 years we have planted over 6000 Endangered Trees in 7 islands and 4 Mainland areas. We have also worked with 3 Ngobe Villages by growing sustainable, highly nutritious Fruit Trees and Veggies, provided them with permaculture tools and taught them how to cook with these Fruits and Veggies to not only provide them with a healthy and sustainable food source, but also help to protect the ambient Rainforest! We are providing educational onsite forums for 1000's of people. But to continue growing and achieving our goals we need Committed, Passionate & Talented people to join our Board to help save Animals and their Habitats! Please read on for more details!
We are also educating Globally via TED Talks (see our Director's TED Talk as presented for the 2020 TED X International Conference in Norway https://youtu.be/ILKnffjyOhA), our interview with Support & Feed Founder Maggie M Baird (and mother of Billie Eilish) at @MaggieMBaird Instagram, our work with Institute of Tropical Ecology and Conservation, NCCCA, Miss Panama, Animalista and more.
Board members
Planet Rehab’s board is seeking to appoint new board members to ensure we have the capacity and skills to oversee the next phase of our work; expanding our influence in the community and raising the funds necessary to do so.
The roles are unpaid voluntary positions.
Board members are expected to attend 6 board meetings per year and participate in Planet Rehab outreach activities.
About Planet Rehab
Planet Rehab was founded in 2003 and is an environmental nonprofit organization (501 c3) dedicated to raising awareness of the desperate state of the planet and making a difference in habitat protection and restoration. We have a strong track record for coordinating numerous events including helping in the organization of the largest climate rally in the history of Los Angeles. In addition, we host beach cleanups, presentations, and festivals to gain support and raise awareness, as well as tours at our animal sanctuary.
We are excited about our new presence in Panama where we have begun reforesting Central American rainforests as well as helping natives live more sustainable lives. This will be an opportunity for Board Members to help mount this exciting venture to help us expand these programs and spearhead our Endangered Species Program, Chapter facilitation, and Coral restoration.
We would like to work toward expanding our reach into the local communities as well as developing an international presence.
