Planting For Change Our Vision For People And Planet

Discover GiftTrees’ vision to plant 1 billion trees and lift 1 million people out of extreme poverty through a business model that aligns people, planet, and profit.

Planting for Change – Our Vision for People and Planet

At GiftTrees, we dream big: 1 billion trees planted and 1 million people lifted out of extreme poverty. 


This ambitious goal is more than just a number; it represents our commitment to tackling some of the world’s most pressing environmental and social challenges.

Using Business As A Force For Good

We are not an NGO. Instead, we are a business using profit as a force for good. This approach allows us to create a sustainable model in which tree planting benefits communities, regenerates ecosystems, and delivers measurable environmental benefits.


By partnering with local communities and trusted tree planting organisations, we ensure that each tree is planted where it can thrive and make a difference.

Restoring Ecosystems Through Agroforestry And Mangroves

Through our work in community-managed agroforestry farms and thriving mangrove ecosystems, degraded land is restored, carbon is sequestered, and biodiversity returns.

Strengthening Communities And Breaking Cycles Of Poverty

Communities gain access to food, income, and the tools to improve their lives, breaking cycles of poverty for generations to come.

People Planet And Profit Working Together

At the heart of GiftTrees is a simple but powerful belief: people, planet, and profit can work together to create lasting impact. Every tree planted is a step toward a healthier planet and a brighter future for the communities that depend on it.


Together, we are building a world where environmental restoration and human prosperity go hand in hand.
