Growing trees, restoring forests

The Trillion Trees ReForest Fund returns the right trees to the right places. Whether you donate to restore 1 tree or 10,000, your support will ensure forests thrive into the future.

By supporting the Fund you will be helping to

  • Restore 200,000 hectares of degraded forest in 40 countries
  • Support the livelihoods of hundreds of people from local communities
  • Protect threatened species, like the endangered Bengal tiger, eastern chimpanzee, White Crowned Hornbill and GoodFellow’s Tree Kangaroo

ReForest Fund

The Trillion Trees partners are restoring forests at crucial sites across the world. We plant trees and promote natural regrowth, selecting the approach based on the surrounding ecosystem and needs of the people in and around the forests.

The ReForest Fund supports forest restoration across a portfolio of sites where our partners have long-term conservation programmes, and involve local communities every step of the way.

By contributing to our ReForest Fund you can be sure that the trees you plant will have a positive and lasting impact on people, nature and the climate.

We welcome support of companies and individuals at all levels. With your support:

  • £3 ($4) could plant or restore one tree (and ensure it is looked after and able to grow into the future).
  • £100 could help enable a farmer to create a small woodlot to supply needed firewood and reduce pressure on threatened forest.
  • £3,000 could help to re-establish an entire hectare of rainforest.
  • £30,000 could help to plant 10,000 trees (which will be able to grow into a diverse and protected forest).

The projects chosen receive direct support to expand their efforts on the ground and increase their scale of ambition: planting more trees, and restoring more forest.

Growing forests

Planting a tree is not the only way to speed up and scale up the power of forests.

Trees are part of a larger ecosystem that we have to carefully manage to make sure the trees we plant grow into the wildlife habitats and livelihood sources so desperately needed.

Our projects focus on recovering and regrowing natural forests, but we take a landscape approach, using a wide range of methods, and looking for opportunities to provide livelihoods improvements  and address the underlying drivers of deforestation. This ensures our efforts make a lasting contribution to reducing carbon in the atmosphere and preserving critical biodiversity.
