The impact of the trees planted by Trees for All<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Climate change and loss of nature don\u2019t stop at our own borders, which is why Trees for All plants trees abroad, as well as in the Netherlands. We also protect existing forests and raise people\u2019s awareness of the importance of trees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To achieve these goals, we support tree planting and reforestation projects<\/a> over the whole world. All these projects have a positive effect on the climate (both local and global), on biodiversity and on the people in the region. So, through one donation, you actually make three times the impact!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
