For communities who live across the drylands of Africa, life is becoming more challenging due to the effects of climate change. Landscapes that were once fertile are being degraded due to rising temperatures and extreme, erratic weather conditions, and vital forests and their resources are being lost. This threatens the livelihoods of communities who rely on the land for food and income, and exacerbates regional poverty.
Tree Aid projects work with communities to harness the power of trees. Trees not only have the power to restore landscapes and revitalise soil, but they can also provide nutritious nuts, fruits, and seeds which can be eaten or sold to increase household incomes.
Tree produce like shea nuts, which come from shea trees, can be processed into profitable butter to sell (pictured). But traditional processing is labour-intensive work for very little reward.
Tree Aid projects support communities with tools and equipment to make shea butter production more efficient, allowing them to increase household incomes and build climate resilience!
For just one week, you can make twice the difference.
We have been awarded an incredible £72,000 in match funding potential from generous Tree Aid supporters and the Big Give Champions Funds. This means if we can raise £72,000 with your help between 22 and 29 April, your donations will be matched and we can secure a grand total of £144,000 of donations to support our work.
Donate to Tree Aid's Big Give Green Match Fund appeal between 22 and 29 April and your gift will be doubled! This means your gift will make twice the impact to support more community-led solutions to tackle the climate crisis across the drylands of Africa.
