Restoring Degraded Land, Fighting Climate Change
Grassroots environmental restoration program
Many people on islands live on severely degraded land. This state of land directly affects their living standards, making it very difficult to grow food, collect firewood, or make a living off the land.
Degraded land also contributes to global warming — when trees are gone, they can no longer remove carbon dioxide (a greenhouse gas) from the atmosphere.
Severely degraded land is impacting the livelihoods of island communities, making basic survival activities like food production and firewood collection extremely difficult. Without intervention, this environmental degradation continues to worsen, contributing to global climate change.
Trees for the Future (TREES) is a grassroots program that helps people living on degraded land to improve their lives through environmentally sound development projects.
Through our network of technicians, volunteers, and community leaders, we sponsor farmer's seminars, workshops and trainings and provide technical knowledge on agroforestry, reforestation, and sustainable development, along with planting materials.
We help communities return their land to sustainable production.

We are training farmers in agroforestry, fruit tree production, reforestation, and vegetable production and encourage all community members to help prevent soil erosion by practicing these techniques on the affected parts of their plots and by participating in communal environmental conservation days.
Teaching sustainable farming practices that integrate trees and crops to restore soil fertility and increase productivity.
Training farmers to grow fruit trees for both environmental restoration and sustainable income generation.
Large-scale tree planting initiatives to restore degraded landscapes and combat climate change.
Sustainable vegetable farming techniques that improve food security while protecting the environment.
Community-based practices to prevent soil erosion and restore land productivity.
Regular community events focused on environmental conservation and restoration activities.
Usually the cost for a workshop (one day) is around $487 USD

We donate Foundation's funds for the farmer's purchase of seeds and seedlings and help with events as well as editing and translating of books and manuals. We help increase public awareness by talking with schools and other groups.
Volunteers are also needed to encourage communities, churches, and civil groups to support tree planting projects.
Due to our extensive networking with technicians, volunteers, and community leaders worldwide:

Every small donation makes a big difference in environmental restoration and climate action.
