I'm excited to announce our partnership with One Tree Planted, a nonprofit dedicated to global reforestation. Together, we support nature restoration, biodiversity, and sustainability initiatives.
  • 1. Trees absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere,

    as well as other harmful gasses such as sulfur dioxide

    and carbon monoxide. 300 billion tons of carbon are

    stored in the Earth's forests, regulating atmospheric

    gases, stabilizing rainfall, and protecting against

    desertification.

    2. Trees release oxygen. An adult tree can provide a

    whole day’s full of oxygen for 4 people, and we all

    need oxygen to live.

    3. Trees help settle and trap dust, pollen, and smoke

    from the air, acting as a natural filter.

    4. The leaves falling from deciduous trees keep the soil

    cool and moist while providing nutrients for

    microorganisms that support new life.

    5. Trees create ecosystems to provide a habitat and

    food for many creatures big and small. 70% of the

    world’s plants and animals live in forests.

    6. Trees help to prevent soil erosion, so land can be

    stable and fertile, contributing to sustainable

    agriculture, reducing global hunger, and reducing

    drought.

    7. Trees absorb excess water in cases of floods, and

    filter toxins from polluted waters.

    8. Trees can reduce air temperature by blocking

    sunlight, and through evaporation of water from leaf

    surfaces which further removes heat energy from air.

    9. Trees have a calming effect on humans, reducing

    stress and anxiety, regulating heart rate, and soothing

    the nervous systems.

    10. They're beautiful, nurturing, and graceful, making

    our landscapes rich and interesting.

  • We work with amazing partners around the world to get trees in the ground and help restore forest systems through reforestation.

  • Every dollar donated plants one tree. We pool our donations and send them to our partners in the field. Together we are making an impact.

   Every 2 seconds, humans destroy an area of forest the size of a football field – that’s 80,000 acres cut down daily. Prior to the year 1900, forests took up about 30% of the world’s land mass. Now just 10% remains intact forest landscapes. 28,000 species are expected to become extinct within the next 25 years due to deforestation. 70% of the world’s plants and animals live in forests and are losing their habitats due to deforestation.

 Loss of habitat can lead to species extinction. This is not only a biodiversity tragedy but also has negative consequences for medicinal research and local populations who rely on the animals and plants in the forests for hunting, food, and medicine.
While many people focus on the climate benefits of tree planting, my motivation lies in its profound impact on our local flora and fauna.
Trees serve as vital habitats for a diverse range of wildlife. They provide shelter and nesting sites for birds, squirrels, and countless other small creatures. The branches and leaves offer refuge from predators and harsh weather conditions, ensuring the survival of many species.
