Story
Traidcraft PLC are pleased to support our sister charity Traidcraft Exchange as part of the Regenerators Appeal. A team of hardy volunteers will spend the night in our dark & cold warehouse. Rumoured to be haunted it's typical of most warehouses - lots of cobwebs, unexplained noises and scratches. Who will survive the night?
Raising money to plant 600 acres of fruit trees in Tanzania.
By working with the Regenerators, it only costs £50 to plant an entire acre of fruit trees. You provide the materials and they do the rest.
But giving in this way actually gives three times over - it's about
more than just trees.
The Earth
You know this, but it's worth saying. Trees take in CO2 and give out oxygen - they actively reduce global warming. They also protect against the risk of flooding and erosion. 600 acres of trees is a significant environmental win.
The future entrepreneurs
There's a reason we're planting fruit trees here - they form the start of
future businesses. Selling fruit locally is another source of income for
people who can use their profits to literally work their way out of poverty.
