Worldwide, broad impact<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Trees for All supports tree planting and reforestation projects all over the world. Half of the trees are planted in the Netherlands and the other half abroad. This is a deliberate choice. Climate change, deforestation and the loss of biodiversity are global problems, which we want to tackle both close to home and on the other side of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Abroad, we ensure that the local population also benefits from the project, for example because the trees provide additional work, income, food or water. An important motivation to protect and maintain trees and forests also in the long term!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our way of work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Quality is an important principle in our work. We plant the right tree in the right place and ensure it is looked after in the right way. In practice, this means we prefer to plant native species that belong to a specific area. We also invest in long-term relationships with our project partners and are involved in a projects for at least 10 years. This way, we ensure that trees and forests are managed well – not just now, but also in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our core values<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For an organisation devoted to creating more forests in the world, it is only logical that sustainability<\/strong> is a priority. We plant trees and forests responsibly, with a view to the long term. We have been doing so for 25 years now, as a reliable<\/strong> recognised charity with a CBF certificate. We work with a team of experts<\/strong> who attach great value to personal<\/strong> contact with partners and donors, and with one another. After all, in order to plant as many trees as possible, we need as many people as possible. So our outlook is always positive:<\/strong> together we can make a difference!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
