- Want to help restore the world's forests? You've come to the right place. Reforestation is one of the best ways to create a healthier environment.
By simply planting a tree today, you'll help clean the air we breathe and the water we drink, provide habitats for biodiversity, and support local communities for social impact. Donations here are currently being allocated to our 1 million trees reforestation project in British Columbia to restore the landscape after forest fires. We're working with local indigenous communities, planting partners, and aligning with the provincial government's Forest Carbon Initiative. -
British Columbia is characterized by abundant forests, rugged Pacific coastlines, mountains, plateaus, and pristine lakes and rivers. However, in the summer of 2017, B.C. experienced it's worst wildfire season in history, with over 545,151 hectares burned. While devastating, we're hopeful that with a little patience and TLC these forests will make a comeback.
We're joining forces with the government of British Columbia and community partners that include First Nations to expand the Forest Carbon Initiative (FCI). The effort is geared towards reducing emissions and sequestering carbon by planting trees, while providing jobs in rural communities. A unique feature of this program is carbon modeling, which includes data and analysis of how much carbon is sequestered over time. This creates a verifiable method for future carbon benefits - such as reduced greenhouse gas emissions - as well as complementary environmental benefits that include forest fire resilience and increased biodiversity. - A personalized tree certificate to say thanks for your donation. We’ll also send you updates on our British Columbia project, so you can track the impact your trees are having on the community and environment.
- B.C.’s rich forest diversity includes more than 40 different species of native trees, with some of Canada’s most interesting and valuable tree species. Coniferous, or softwood, species such as pine, spruce, fir, hemlock and western red cedar are predominant in close to 90 per cent of B.C.’s forests. To maximize the impact of your donation, our partner will determine the most appropriate species of tree to plant, depending on the time of year.
