About Me

Trees For Haiti

Haiti, already the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere, currently is over 98% deforested.

As a result of the rapid deforestation, the parched soil has turned Haiti’s landscape into a setting for frequent flash flooding—destroying infrastructure and crops across Haiti.

But YOU can make a difference .

For only $10, you can plant a fruit tree in Haiti .

By planting a fruit tree, you will take an important step to making this Earth greener . You will provide life to the scorched soil, and a healthy, sustainable food source for starving Haitians.

Please help today , and create a greener tomorrow .
