What the Project Is
Be part of the solution: plant trees for nature, communities, and climate! One Tree Planted is a 501(c)(3) non-profit based in Vermont that makes it simple for anyone to plant trees. Reforestation is one of the best ways to restore ecosystems that have been degraded or deforested. The project involves activities such as Donate, Corporate Sustainability, Our Work, and By Impact, all in one easy-to-navigate experience. From Biodiversity efforts to Mangroves, Watersheds, and Community support across different regions, every action speaks volumes about the dedication to nurturing the planet. The mission is clear: turn every tree planted into an investment in the future – a future that supports nature, communities, and climate.

Diverse Project Activities
The scope of activities does not simply limit itself to merely planting trees. Instead, the focus broadens to include initiatives like Corporate Sustainability and Our Funds programs such as Gift Trees and Gift Trees In Memory, all gathered under a comprehensive approach towards urban forestry and environmental charity. The initiative is dynamic and allows for varied support through projects like monthly giving and curated reforestation efforts that illuminate the diverse ways tree planting serves as a catalyst for change. Each activity is designed to inspire hope and build lasting partnerships with communities. It offers a range of options from reforestation projects in urban areas to the nurturing of remote ecosystems, making it accessible and engaging for everyone.
Community and Environmental Leadership
It is a movement that underscores the importance of community involvement and environmental leadership. This initiative has played a crucial role for over 10 years, representing dedication to nature stories and sustainability partner stories that have industrial and public impacts. Drawing from the energy of news & stories and feature inspirations from the Newsroom section, the organization provides an open window into how people across the world can collaborate for restoring natural habitats. Through the lens of Corporate Sustainability, community outreach, and even urban forestry, the initiative continuously revitalizes ecosystems while reinforcing the importance of preserving local traditions, natural heritage, and the simple yet powerful act of planting trees.
Educational and Inspirational Outreach
The project further extends its impact through its educational outreach and inspirational storytelling. Featuring sections like Our Mission, Our Impact, and even dedicated stories for each project year – 2023, 2022, 2021, and 2020 – the audience gains access to a wealth of information that transcends the boundaries of simple donation requests. It is a platform intended to educate communities about the multifaceted benefits of reforestation, from improved air quality and enhanced local ecosystems to stronger community bonds and resilience against climate challenges. Casual yet engaging language amplifies the message along with clear calls to action like Get Involved, inviting every individual to become part of a greener future.
