Aula Global Para Siempre: Aula Global Forever

Construction of the Aula Global Research Station/Lodge was a real community effort, when volunteers from all different parts of the world came together to build a fuctional facility that comfortably sleeps 20, has a gas-powered stove, solar power from which lights, computer, and camera equipment can be run, running water from a nearby mountain spring, which then filters through a gray water system. Nearby is a luxurious composting toilet and a recently constructed dorm building that sleeps another 14. As it took a community to build the center, it takes a community to maintain it as well. If you would like to start or continue to support Aula Global, below are two ways you can help.

Yearly Donations


We raise funds every year so we can compensate our dedicated ranger, Israel, and so we can pay our taxes, equipment, and lawyer fees. This comes to about $15,000 per year. Any time, you can send us a check, or make a secure online donation through PayPal. These donations will go toward meeting our yearly operating costs.
We are always looking for dedicated donors who are willing to donate regularly. While we try to spread the word ourselves, another way to contribute is to help us spread the word. If you know of anyone who would be interested in donating to our organization, or any one of our projects, feel free to put them in touch with us by phone or email.

Endowment Fund


The future goal for Aula Global is to create a one-million dollar endowment fund. This is to ensure Aula Global is protected in perpetuity. It would also allow Global Classroom volunteers to focus their energy on new projects and spend more time doing what they do best; working in the field. If you are inspired to donate a larger sum of money, you may want to think about putting it toward the endowment fund.
If you have any questions concerning the endowment fund or how to donate to it, please email us at globalclassroom@crocker.com or call us at 978.324.3530.
