Transparent tree planting for your business

Plant trees, protect forests and support vulnerable communities

PROTECTING VITAL FORESTS

Forests provide a vital habitat for animals and support people by purifying the air we breathe and regulating local temperatures. They also act as carbon sinks.

We protect 340 sq.km of forest with 1,800 Forest Conservation Committee members in Malawi and one way this is achieved is by planting trees. Planting trees not only captures more CO2 but prevents soil erosion too.

PLANTING TREES

We work with farmers and communities to plant millions of trees each year, and these provide a sustainable source of timber and firewood for local people.

By providing communities with a sustainable source of timber and firewood it enables them to be able to conserve existing forests with indigenous trees and allow natural regeneration to take place.

GROWING FRUIT TREES

We work with community clubs to plant thousands of fruit trees every year. They are trained in how to care for their trees so that, in time, they produce enough fruit to eat and sell.

Fruit improves the health of vulnerable rural families as many people are severely lacking many of the important vitamins and minerals, and they are able to sell any surplus fruit to generate an income.

4,984 AED can plant 4,000 trees (that’s just 1.25 AED per tree)

For every tree planted, we protect three in a forest - pretty cool, right?

testimonials

“Phineas have been supporting Ripple Africa’s tree planting and forest conservation project since 2017 and it’s something we’re incredibly proud of. In 2018 we were lucky enough to visit the team in Malawi and were so impressed with just how true they are to their ethos ‘providing a hand UP not a handout’. Not only is it obvious that the local communities trust Ripple Africa and their projects, but they share their passion and dedication to make them a success.”
Phineas Group
“I have no reservations in supporting Ripple Africa’s tree planting efforts. I know all too well that good intentions must be matched with action. The Ripple Africa team work extremely hard to raise awareness and most importantly act on their convictions. It is comforting to know that my support actually makes a positive contribution to the people of Malawi and the environment which sustains their communities and livelihoods.”
