2009 Report
The first ever Global Milonga on Dec. 12, 2009 took place in 10 cities and 5 countries, and lasted for 14 hours. More than 50 people collaborated on its creation. Together, 974 tango dancers raised the equivalent of US $7062, or 70,620 trees, in 5 currencies, across 9 time zones.
The 2009 Global Milonga funds were allocated to projects in Brazil, where our partner Trees for the Future has initiated a long-term program to address low agricultural production, rural poverty, and environmental destruction. São Paulo State contains some of the last vestiges of the Atlantic Rainforest (only 7% of the original Atlantic Rainforest remains today). Read more about the work in Brazil
