Bio & Mission

Help school children cover the earth with a billion trees a year. Children love germinating and then nurturing 10,000 trees in their school playgrounds in tropical regions around the globe… 10,000 saplings are grown in an area the size of 4 parking spaces in three months. Three million dollars worth of trees can be germinated in a tiny schoolyard tree nursery. These 10,000 trees are then planted by students at home and given to 5 more schools for additional tree nurseries. Within a couple of years, these 10,000 trees will produce two million seeds yearly, providing families income and the opportunity to germinate more trees. The trees also pull down half a million pounds of carbon yearly for a more stable climate. Young people want to nurture nature, and planting trees everywhere fills them with Joy! The small act of planting trees becomes a big deal when children understand the gift of Trees.

Thousands of products and food come from trees that children will need in the future. By 2030 we must set up 100,000 School Yard Nurseries in the tropics planting one billion trees a year. Within a few years, there will be a trillion tree seeds each year from billions of trees planted and nurtured by kids. Be part of it.

Our
Approach

MORE Tree Nurserys for 200,000 schools ultimately pulls down more carbon than is released worldwide each year. Establish one 5,000 tree nursery(MTNs) in each of 200,000 schools in the tropics every year, germinating one billion trees annually. Each MORE Tree Nursery (MTN) with 5,000 trees will pull down one hundred (100) tons of carbon every year while improving soil fertility and air quality. These same trees will produce over a million pounds of tree-based food within a few years annually. There are health, economic, environmental, and social benefits that every nation can enjoy from covering the earth with trees again. Let the children grow their future.
