From beaches of white sand to evergreen forests, the Dominican Republic is a land of diversity. Planting trees in the Dominican Republic will revitalize soil and promote biodiversity.

Why we do it
With pristine beaches, evergreen forests, and fertile valleys, the Dominican Republic is home to the most diverse topography in the Caribbean. Reforestation in the Dominican Republic will help revitalize deforested land and empower local communities to plant and care for the trees. The trees planted in this project will not only have an impact on diverse land of the Dominican Republic, but it will also impact local community members, partnering with local farmers to help promote planting efforts. 🌲
Impact
The trees planted in this project will have a substantial ecological impact. They will nourish and revitalize the soil, promote biodiversity, improve water sources, and stabilize weather patterns. Trees planted on hillsides will also prevent erosion, decreasing pollution and preserving crops through storms and unstable weather. These better crop yields will lead to better community nutrition and health, promoting food security. Planting trees in this project will also help promote gender equity in the Dominican Republic, empowering women to take action in their local communities.
What You Get
A personalized tree certificate (see gallery) to say thanks for your donation. We'll also send you reports on our Dominican Republic project, so you can track the impact your trees are having on the community and environment.
Tree Species
We always plant a mix of diverse, native species from local nurseries. This project is working to replenish local forests, so the native species grown in the nurseries will include an array of different fruit trees and timber trees.
