The unique forests, friendly villages and lively cities will be remembered long after your trip has ended. Sadly, alongside the beauty, you cannot fail to notice the extreme poverty that is leaving so many Malagasy people with little access to nutrition, clean water, healthcare or education. This poverty is putting enormous pressure on Madagascar\u2019s unique habitats, resulting in mass deforestation and the risk of extinction for thousands of species found nowhere else on earth.<\/h4>\n<h4>The people and ecosystems of Madagascar are teetering on the brink of survival, but there is always hope. Over the past 30 years, Money for Madagascar (MfM) has helped thousands of people achieve a better quality of life whilst protecting their environment.<\/h4>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #646839;\"><em><strong>While discovering the beautiful &lsquo;Red Island&rsquo;, why not get involved in helping Madagascar with MfM?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h4>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #646839;\"><strong>HOW YOU CAN HELP!!<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>VISIT A PROJECT<\/strong><\/h4>\n<h4>All MfM projects are run by dedicated Malagasy staff who would be delighted to show you their work.
