Plant Trees and Save Lives

The destruction of healthy forest systems causes so many different problems. Trees provide a habitat for animals, purify water sources, control flooding and erosion and help to replenish the soil with nutrients needed for farming. When farmers canโ€™t grow anything their farms fail and they have no option but to move to the overcrowded cities looking for work. Often they have to resort to selling themselves or their families into slavery just to survive.

We start by hiring the local community to plant trees. This gives them a decent income so they can provide for their families again. As the reforestation effort goes on, healthy forests begin to emerge and all the negative effects of deforestation begin to disappear.

    They have planted over 900 MILLION trees!!! Help create much needed jobs in extremely poor, rural areas so people can earn money by helping forests thrive and sequestering CO2.

    When I was in first grade, I planted a tree in my backyard that I got from school for Earth Day. I loved watching it get bigger and bigger. Today it's taller than me!

    Hearing about deforestation makes me feel sad and discouraged.
    On the other hand, finding out that they have already planted over 300 million trees in eight countries while creating opportunities for people fills me with hope and joy.
