Your December Newsletter ~ 15 Million Trees!!!
You did it! We’ve raised enough to fund 15 million trees!
Our dream this year was to reach the funding of 15 million trees by the end of the year and on Giving Tuesday, we soared past our target! Thanks to your generosity and care, 15 million life-giving trees will reach for the sky, restoring habitats, creating employment, providing food, nourishing soil, transforming landscapes… 15 million leafy green gifts for our world and for future generations!
Take a look at some of the beautiful comments from Giving Tuesday donors here.
