Happy Earth Day! As a result of our campaign to raise money for the High Atlas Foundation's "Trees For Life" initiative this month, we've succeeded in reaching our goal of raising the money to plant 5,000 trees! Thank you to all who supported us in our efforts. The "Trees For Life" campaign is estimated to have lifted approximately 50,000 Moroccans out of poverty by by planting fruit trees to generate income and end their dependence on subsistence agriculture. Here's how it works: HAF has received land for the project from various organizations, including government agencies, local cooperatives, schools and women's associations. Native tree species are planted in nurseries on the land and grown without the use of pesticides. Once the trees reach maturity, they are distributed to the surrounding population. Additionally, land management practices are put into place to prevent soil erosion and desertification, creating a simple program that ensures the longevity of Morocco's people and environment.
