About us
Plant With Purpose, a Christian development organization, reverses deforestation and poverty around the world by transforming the lives of the rural poor. For more than 35 years, Plant With Purpose has been a leader in linking international community development and environmental solutions, working with smallholder farmers in strategic areas where environmental degradation and poverty intersect. Plant With Purpose currently works in Burundi, Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Dominican Republic, Haiti, Mexico, Tanzania, and Thailand, employing an integrated methodology that combines environmental restoration, economic empowerment, and spiritual renewal. Activities include watershed restoration, reforestation, sustainable agriculture training, savings-and-loan groups, local leadership development, and supporting outreach efforts of the local Christian church. Our Vision: to break the vicious cycle of poverty and deforestation by transforming it into a victorious cycle of environmental restoration, economic empowerment and spiritual renewal.

Did you know . . . our goal isn't to work with a community perpetually? From the start, our approach is to have community members take the lead in reversing poverty and restoring the environment. Then, in a few years, they will sustain their success without Plant With Purpose. And it's working! As community action and leadership increase> Plant With Purpose intervention decreases! A great example of this is the Huay Lu watershed in Thailand which graduated last year. Learn about how communities graduate: https://loom.ly/Osd3vHA
How an ENTIRE COMMUNITY graduated.

Indigenous knowledge is essential to protecting our planet's biodiversity. A global study shows that regions with high ecological diversity often overlap with areas of cultural diversity, particularly where Indigenous communities thrive. Indigenous management practices not only protect biodiversity but enhance it, offering a model for regenerative agriculture. Today and every day, we honor the rich agricultural traditions of Indigenous peoples that continue to shape sustainable practices today both in the US and globally. #IndigenousPeoplesDay #Biodiversity #CulturalDiversity #RegenerativeAgriculture
