4nature – Kolombangara Island Conservation Scholarships

About this cause

Fund school students and help protect a rainforest.

Support families on Kolombangara Island to keep their forests standing by helping pay for their children’s education.

  • $125 – supports one secondary school student for one year
  • $700 – supports one university student for one year
  • $1,250 – supports 10 students, amplifying your impact.

Every donation directly contributes to students’ education fees.

Why this matters

On Kolombangara Island in the Solomon Islands, landholders have agreed to protect 20,000 hectares of rainforest – one of the last intact forest areas in the country.

But families face real financial pressure, with school fees a major cost. These scholarships provide a practical alternative to logging income, helping families keep forests intact while supporting their children’s education.

These scholarships have a proven, long-term impact:

  • Operating for over 15 years.
  • Supporting 80+ students each year.
  • Strong local delivery through KIBCA, our on-ground partner.

Demand continues to grow, with 500+ applications received in recent years.

Your donation will make a difference.

  • Help students stay in school.
  • Reduce pressure on families to log forests.
  • Support long-term conservation led by local communities.

Donate now: Fund one or more scholarships today and be part of a long-standing, community-led conservation success.
