Google Earth Outreach is Google's program for donating and supporting non-profit organizations spreading the knowledge of global awareness since 2007.[1] Google Earth Outreach offers online training on using Google Earth and Google Maps for public education on issues affecting local regions or the entire globe.
In June 2008 a training was given to 20 indigenous tribes in the Amazon rainforest, such as the Suruí, to help them preserve their culture and protect their rainforest territory from deforestation.[2]
