TreeSisters - Women Seeding Change
They are about to bring on at least three new projects in different countries this year, starting next week with Mozambique and hopefully Amazonia the following month. This is something that we can all be involved with and grow together year by year as we all take greater action in the face of climate change. Now is the time to do everything we can to restore our world.
TreeSisters is a global network of women who donate monthly to fund the restoration of our tropical forests as a collective expression of planetary care.
