Our Impact
Transforming lives, one tree at a time
Across Africa’s drylands, we work hand in hand with communities to grow food and incomes, restore land, and build resilience against the climate crisis.
Since 1987, we’ve helped bring over 264,000 hectares of land under sustainable management and grown more than 40 million trees — that’s one tree every five seconds.

Each tree is a seed of hope, for people and the planet. Every tree planted benefits a person, family or community with enriched soil, nutritious food, and sustainable tree product businesses.
We’re working towards a world where land and life grow stronger together.
The project has brought me a lot of things, particularly in terms of a change of mindset. On top of that, with the reforestation work as part of the project’s activities, we’ve had additional income.
