The Good Project Benefit Dinner

Benefit Dinner slated to Spotlight Amazonian Biologist David Good and Anthropologist Hortensia Caballero.

The Good Project founder, David Good, a biologist and public speaker, and Hortensia Caballero, a Venezuelan anthropologist, will be keynote speakers at The Good Project benefit dinner, Tuesday, November 5, from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., at the ESU Innovation and Entrepreneurship Center, in East Stroudsburg, PA.

Guests attending the benefit dinner will journey to the Amazon rain forest, in southern Venezuela, where the Yanomami - a remote indigenous people of hunter-gatherers-gardeners - call their home. Through their captivating stories, David and Hortensia will recount adventures and research initiatives among the Yanomami.

The speakers will highlight 30 years of experience working among the Yanomami and will also feature a monumental slide presentation.

Protecting and empowering the keepers of the Amazon, many Yanomami communities face difficult challenges in maintaining their ancestral way of life, while integrating with the dominant national culture.

The Good Project supports existing intercultural education, healthcare, and cultural preservation programs that promote Yanomami empowerment and self-determination. Protecting the Yanomami people means protecting the Amazon rainforest and its invaluable benefit to humanity worldwide.

All proceeds and contributions will support The Good Project's next expedition to Yanomami territory. The mission is to complete projects in health and education. To learn more, and to purchase tickets, visit www.jointhegoodproject.org
