Community Cloud Forest Conservation works to alleviate poverty and protect Guatemala’s tropical cloud forests. The organization supports a range of projects that include education, reforestation, community development and bird monitoring. They teamed up with Chicago bird conservationists to protect the winter home of the birds that migrate through Chicago. Worldview catches up with Rob Cahill, the organization's founder and Judy Pollock, the director of Bird Conservation for the Audubon Chicago Region.
