Thank you for helping us to reach families like Bekelech's with life-changing trees

“My children were malnourished. I gave my only food to them, but it was never enough. It had a big impact on them. They’d get sick often.”

Bekelech, Ethiopia

“The climate crisis is impacting our land. One year, there was such a big flood that it bought material down from the steep slopes behind our house onto our land and destroyed our coffee and crops. All we could do was replant everything and start again.”

Bekelech, Ethiopia

Ripple Effect
Life-changing trees that fight flooding Families like Bekelech’s will learn how tree planting can boost their crop yields and protect their farms. Planting different indigenous trees like Cordia Africana as well as coffee on slopes helps to anchor topsoil, preventing soil erosion caused by rainfall and reducing the risk of flooding.
Ripple Effect
Healthy soils for healthy children Families like Bekelech's will learn about composting. Compost is rich in nutrients like nitrogen and potassium which are essential to plant growth. When compost is applied to the soil, it boosts crop yields.
Ripple Effect
Climate-resilient seeds to stop hunger By equipping families with resilient seed varieties such as cabbage, carrot and beetroot, crops have the best chance of surviving extreme weather, which is becoming more common as the climate crisis worsens.
