Trees for Kenya's Future
Kenya’s vast landscapes are home to diverse ecosystems, from wildlife-rich savannas to fertile agricultural lands. However, deforestation has threatened this beauty, leading to land degradation and decreased water security. Through reforestation efforts in Kenya, we’re supporting the planting of trees that restore vital ecosystems, improve soil health, and provide local communities with a sustainable source of income through responsible forestry practices.
