Honoring the life of

Dr. Jane Goodall

We are heartbroken to hear of Jane Goodall’s passing, and yet it feels impossible not to celebrate the extraordinary life she lived.

Jane taught us that protecting our planet begins with love, respect, and truly listening to animals, to nature, and to one another. She reminded us that every act of care, no matter how small, matters, and that compassion has the power to change the world.

I'm so delighted that our friends at Vital Impacts have launched their latest photo print sales. I was really excited to see that that photo of me looking out at the valley at Gombe was chosen... I love that picture.

The bigger picture is, what a great way for people to donate to great causes and get something back at the same time. And, the photographers benefit as well. It gives them a chance to use that money to do the next project.

Nick Brandt

Photographer

When it comes to nature photography, few do it better than National Geographic photographers. Now you can buy a print of some of their photographs — and it's for a good cause.
