Their Planting System is Super Effective
The way One Tree Planted works is simple but so effective:
- You donate online (or you buy a Keebos, and we donate!)
- They pool the donations
- One Tree Planted partners grow the saplings
- Teams plant the trees during the rainy season
- Trees are maintained and monitored
- One Tree Planted generates reports on the impact of your efforts
On the tree-planting side, this is how it works, along with a breakdown of what the average planting dollar goes to:
- The site is prepared (land prep and weeding) - Cost: Ten cents
- The trees are grown (saplings are nurtured in the nursery) - Cost: Sixty cents
- The trees are planted (transported to the site and planted by hand) - Cost: Fifteen cents
- The trees are maintained and monitored (impact and operations reports are sent) - Cost: Fifteen cents
Trees Help These Six Pillars Thrive
Trees help all six of these pillars thrive - and these six pillars are ones that we depend upon!
They Plant Multiple Types of Trees
One Tree Planted doesn’t get lazy about what kind of trees they plant. They go all out to ensure that communities and animals in the regions get the greatest possible benefit, so they plant a wide range of tree types.
They even go so far as to educate visitors to their website about types of trees. (Confession: we didn’t know there were over 60,000 different tree species until they told us!)
