Invites you to join us adopt
Replanting Haiti Program
Friends, this program is a long term strategy that will help Haiti see it’s way to a better tomorrow. For only $5 for each tree, you are going to make a difference to the lives of less fortunate individuals in Haiti. Please join us!
According to the United Nations, Haiti has only one percent of its trees left, making Haiti one of the most environmentally destroyed countries. One particular program we are investing is planting one million Moringa trees within the next couple of months. This tree is particularly amazing because it can grow in extremely harsh conditions, and within its' first year will grow to around 20 feet! Outside of it being one of the fastest growing trees in the world, the fruit from the Moringa has gram for gram, 7 times the Vitamin C of Oranges, 3 times the potassium of Bananas, 4 times the Calcium of Milk, and 4 times the Vitamin A of Carrots! Our tree program will keep top soil from eroding, and bring nutrition to millions of people. The Moringa Oleifera also produces an "oil of ben", obtained from the seeds that contains a powerful flocculant, that can be used to clarify turbid water! It also cleans and disinfects wounds. This tree is nicknamed "the miracle tree" for a reason.
