ENVIRONMENTAL PARTNERS
In alignment with the United Nations SDGs Active Giving has selected environmental projects based on their proven ability to aid the fight against climate change. Currently, afforestation sequesters 4.7 Tons CO2 per hectare per year totaling a third of total sequestered carbon globally and is one of the best proven methods of carbon capture in operation. This is why Active Giving converts trackable fitness activities into trees planted.
Our project partners use trees to generate the following social and environmental impact with their work:
Air Quality: Trees sequester CO2 and other gaseous pollutants and provide clean air for us to breathe.
Water Quality: Trees and its surrounding soil hold runoff water and avoid contaminants from entering surface water.
Bio-Diversity: Trees provide a habitat for animals and insects to thrive which increases biodiversity.
Health & wellness: Trees contribute to mental well-being, relieve stress and serve as a source of medicine. With Active Giving they now promote physical activity.
Soil & Soil Health: Trees anchor soil with its roots and avoid landslides. Trees can also filter chemicals and pollutants from the soil into less harmful forms. Falling fruits of trees provide the soil with nutrients.
Food and Forest Products: Trees can provide food and products from which people can make a living.

About Trees for the Future
Trees for the Future identifies a group of farmers—typically 300 families at a time —who have both a great need for assistance and a high likelihood of success. Farmers provide the land, labor, and water; a powerful, entrepreneurial determination; and an inspiring sense of ownership. TREES provides training, mentoring, seeds, and nursery supplies for each family. They guide the large groups of farmers through the process of using trees to protect, diversify, and eventually optimize their crop land. They continue working with farmers for the four years it takes to fully establish the Forest Garden, offering ongoing coaching and regular site visits.
