About the job

REF Origin Story:
Raw Earth Foundation was born from a deep-rooted dedication to service and a love for all things wild. In 2016, while our founder Raven Petca was volunteering on an organic farm in Ecuador, she witnessed firsthand the devastating impact of climate change on the Amazon. The eye-opening experience strengthened her determination to take action toward environmental challenges, and there she promised to do everything she could to help. In 2023, after nearly seven years of research and reflection, she founded Raw Earth Foundation.Today, the organization is dedicated to restoring ecosystems, protecting biodiversity, and creating sustainable green spaces, fulfilling the promise she made.

What we are doing Now:
The early stages of Raw Earth Foundation have been centered around establishing fundraising platforms to support our mission and programs. These efforts have created a strong foundation for the future growth of our initiatives. Looking ahead, we are excited to expand our team, strengthen our programs, and enhance our online presence. In addition, we are eager to acquire and develop facilities that will further support our programs.
