Mission:
We are an agroforestry resource center helping people
in developing countries improve their rural livelihoods through the introduction
of environmentally sustainable land management projects focused on beneficial
tree planting.
We provide technical knowledge on agroforestry and
sustainable development, along with planting materials so that communitites can
return their degraded lands and struggling farms back to sustainable production.
Through our network of technicians, volunteers, and community leaders
world-wide, our program reaches remote areas and gives local people the
knowledge and ability to rehabilitate their environment.
Since 1988, Trees
for the Future has helped thousands of communities in Central America, Africa,
and Asia improve their livelihoods and their environment by planting nearly 50
million trees. We calculate that these trees remove approximately one million
tons of CO2 from the atmosphere each year.
