There is a saying in Kenya that loosely translates to “That which leaves near a water source goes to bed thirsty”.
It is a sight to behold in poor communities when a father or a mother comes back home with food for the children more so if it is a loaf of bread or a kilogram of sugar, to these kids and families, a loaf of bread or wheat flour for baking is a preserve of the rich. Children shed tears of joy when their parents buy a pair of new / used shoes or a new / used pair of pants for them. Many families living around forests cannot afford more than one meal a day if they are lucky; they have no access to roads, electricity, clean drinking water and proper medicare. Yet for a personal donation of USD 0.5, we can bring permanent smiles on the faces of these forest adjacent communities. They will receive decent wages, they will be enrolled in a universal health care program (NHIF) and they will be entitled to a social security fund (NSSF). Donate to our kitty and we will not only bring up healthy indigenous trees but we will have smiles from communities living around forests in Kenya radiating the world.    

“If you want to walk fast, walk alone, If you want to walk far, walk together” - African Proverb
Join us so that we can walk far together by adopting the reforestation sites that are available to us in Kenya at scale.
• Saving our Indigenous Forests in Kenya: Plant, grow and nurture trees at scale at USD 0.5 per indigenous tree seed sourced, sorted, prepared, broadcasted in our germination beds, pricked out, potted, cared for and transplanted in the wild and nurtured to maturity and we will compliment your donation by allocating 10% of the total number of trees you have supported to a twin agroforestry programme. ( The communities living around forests must have a fallback plan after 5 years of DeWaDeLI - Decent Wages and Decent Life for Decent Forests).
• Sustainable Wealth Creation: Community Forest Associations at your adopted site have been permitted in law to venture into local and international tourism activities e.g developing eco-lodges, designing nature trails and walks, offering guided walking tours in the remnants of healthy forests, developing apiaries for natural honey harvesting, sustainable water bottling etcetera. Your organization can help communities living around indigenous forests in Kenya to think outside the box by supporting sustainable permitted business models that multiply wealth. This will ensure that the forests are guarded and protected because they become an extra household revenue stream. capacity building sessions, training and exchange tours.
• Magical Kenya Elephant Naming Ceremony: Did you know that in areas where you adopt a forest you can have one or more of Kenya’s Big 5 (Elephant, Lion, Buffalo, Leopard and Rhino) named after your organization or your employee of the year or whichever criteria you choose? How cool is that?
• Designated Restoration Site: For our big partners who are funding reforestation areas of between 500 hectares - 5,000 hectares within 5 years, we will offer designated polygons entirely dedicated to you. You will have unlimited access subject to government protocol, state of the roads (you could be in the bush for days depending on the weather at the time) and wild animals movement (guided tours and armed escort can be arranged….adrenaline rush!). What a way of getting your staff, families, friends to bond and experience the wild. Additionally, you will have taylor-made reports on the progress scheduled to meet your demands.
• Exchange Programmes: We encourage our corporate sponsors to bring volunteers from their country to work with our teams and experience rural Kenya. We also encourage our partners to find it within their helping hand to schedule at least one exchange programme during the term of the reforestation activity. Imagine a local community member who has not had a chance to visit a local town having a chance in life to visit a foreign country / city? Imagine sponsoring a young girl or boy who has completed his secondary education and he has excelled to join college getting a chance to visit a foreign country? How many more young kids will be motivated to protect indigenous forests and excel in their studies.
