Areas Of Focus
Basic Education
RAGES promotes sustainable environmental projects that provide education of youth and adults about the fundamental need to protect and restore healthy ecosystems.
Environment

Water and Sanitation
RAGES supports projects for clean water around the world. As with humans, endangered species rely on clean water, free of plastics, fertilizers, and pesticides.
Disease Prevention
