What we are
we are a private foundation
thus a non profit organization
What we do
We preserve biodiversity
by protecting forests, leaving them to evolve without cutting or other human intervention, for the benefit of animal and plant life and biodiversity. With the same philosophy, we do land restoration.
How
we buy forests
We use private property to ensure that there is no human intervention in our forests. We give away neither forests nor shares of their ecosystem services
Why
Today, the real value of forests is environmental
We are convinced that the real value of forests today is not economic but environmental, since integral forest conservation counteracts climate change and hydrogeological instability, curbs land consumption and preserves beauty.
We are all volunteers
no one in the ffi is paid
Join us to help us preserve forests and biodiversity!
We have no revenues
ours is not an economic activity
the maintenance and expansion of protected areas is only possible thanks to donations of money and land by private individuals and companies

Get to know FFI
Support our action
The work of the Italian Forestry Fund is a bridge that our generation builds towards the next generation, but what we do is expensive and does not bring financial returns, so the expansion of the areas protected by the Italian Forestry Fund is only possible thanks to donations of money and land from private individuals and companies
Donate your 5x1000 to the FFI
(if you pay taxes in Italy) it costs you nothing: write CF 91030740608
donate land
The FFI will never execute or authorise cuts in it
Affiliate a forest
You will become part of a community of people who, like you, are willing to deprive themselves of financial gain for the love of nature
