On a mission to plant 1 billion GiftTrees and lift 1 million people out of extreme poverty
About us
GiftTrees helps lift people out of extreme poverty and counter some of the unavoidable damage to our planet. We do this by funding the creation and maintenance of agroforestry systems for farming families growing produce like fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds and spices. By working in partnership with restaurants and epos providers, we enable diners to balance their personal impact and give something good to the world, by funding the planting of a GiftTree on their restaurant bill for just £1.23. More than 10 million diners have happily contributed to GiftTrees to date. GiftTrees is proud to partner with Comtrex, EPOS Now, Lightspeed, Tevalis , Wi-Q, Zonal and many more POS providers. Millions of diners have supported GiftTrees in wonderful destinations like Pied a Terre, Fazenda, The Alchemist, James Martin, Brewski, Cubitt House, April's Kitchen, Stuzzi, The Pig's Head, Sabai Sabai, Marco Pierre White, Breathe and many more... The agroforestry systems that GiftTrees fund, reforest parched land, reverse soil degradation, enable quality harvesting, create jobs and provide income to pay for clothing, food, education and the basics we take for granted. Like a home and medicine. GiftTrees are not just trees. They are a powerful life-force that absorb tons of CO2, reduce the use of fertilisers and excessive water, and lift real families out of extreme poverty. For good. Join our mission to plant 1 billion GiftTrees and lift 1 million people out of extreme poverty.

Thank you, Jon, for your invaluable support in our mission! 💚🌱 Your ongoing commitment to helping us plant 1 billion trees and lift 100 million people out of poverty is truly appreciated. 🌳 It’s a privilege to work together towards making the hospitality industry more sustainable and positively impact communities who need it the most. We’re happy to announce that later this month, we’ll be honoured with a Green Apple Award from The Green Organisation. This recognition allows us to share our mission, raising awareness about the power of sustainable hospitality and environmental best practices. #SustainableHospitality #GiftTrees #GreenAppleAward #HospitalityTech #SustainabilityInAction
Operations Director - Midlands / North (& Environmental Judge for International Green Apple, Green World and CSR Excellence Awards)
I believe that raising awareness is a vital component towards protecting both people and the planet. I am aware however that most people are just far too busy in their own lives to make a positive impact, which led me onto an idea and one that I would ask for your help in achieving. The International Green Apple Awards are quite possibly the world’s most recognised environmental award. This year marks their 30th year of existence. Yet, few know that The Green Organisation is not only the creators of these prestigious awards, but the driving force behind it. A small group of dedicated individuals who have dedicated 3 decades (to date) running their non-profit organisation and making positive and direct action towards those in need, in countries far from ours through providing mosquito nets, engines and support for those in third world countries. They never push an agenda on anyone, but work continuously towards raising awareness and helping others, and all in the hope that simply by raising awareness, promoting, and sharing news and innovation towards environmental best practice the world will be a better place for everyone. For some time now, The Green Organisation has been working with GiftTrees, who (like the Green Org) work with partners to not only plant trees in countries such as Tanzania but provide professional help and support with local farmers and families towards agroforestry, thereby making every single tree planted not only a source of carbon sequestering but an immediate provider of life, food, shelter and income. I wish to raise awareness of both these organisations and they great work they do. I also want you to be involved, without taking much needed time, away from you. This morning I looked at the LinkedIn pages of both The Green Organisation and GiftTrees and I noted how many followers they have. Between today (3rd November) and Sunday 1st December 2024 I will, in partnership with GiftTrees, plant a tree 🌳 for every NEW FOLLOWER to both The Green Organisation and GiftTrees. All you need to do to help make a massive difference towards protecting our planet and directly impacting on the lives of people who need help in living itself, is to click the links for both organisations and follow them. The more you spread the word, the more trees we plant and the more help we give. It is as simple as that. Please follow them and spread the word to other colleagues, friends, family and customers. Together we can make a huge difference. Thank you

🎃 Making an impact can feel scary... but doing nothing is scarier. 🌍 This Halloween, while we celebrate with costumes and treats, families in rural Tanzania face real-life challenges every day—surviving on less than £2 a day. Thanks to GiftTrees, we’re turning these fears into hope, planting trees that change lives. 🌱 Every tree planted means food, medicine, and opportunity for these communities. Will you help us continue planting seeds of change? Together, we can turn fear into futures filled with hope.🌳 💚 #GiftTrees #Halloween #GiftTreesImpact #TrickorTreat #EndPoverty #HospitalityTech

🍎 Health starts from the ground up! 🌱 Fruit trees play a crucial role in improving the diets of families, providing essential vitamins and nutrients that are vital for overall health. The surplus fruits can be sold in local markets, generating income that families can use to access healthcare services. 💰 By integrating fruit trees into their lives, communities are not only feeding themselves but also investing in their health and well-being. 🌍 This holistic approach helps lift families out of poverty and builds a healthier future for all! Join us in planting 1 billion trees and lifting 100 million out of poverty with life-changing trees! #HealthyLiving #FruitForHealth #CommunityWellbeing #IncomeGeneration #GiftTrees #SustainableAgriculture #Agroforestry
