Focus Area

Ecosystem Restoration & Reforestation

Over 45,000 trees planted across The Gambia, restoring coastlines, schools, and community spaces.

Our approach

Restoring the ecosystems that hold The Gambia together.

From the Banjul coastline to schools and community spaces across every region, we plant with purpose, in partnership with councils, schools, and the people who tend the land.
