We have created refoorest with the objective of empowering everyone to take action against climate change. By planting as many trees as possible, we are thus contributing to the objective of planting 1.2 trillion trees by 2030 to end the environmental crisis.
refoorest is funded by its 50,000+ partners in order to offer a 100% free service to its users.
We allocate a portion of our income to operating expenses, including team salaries, social charges, freelancer payments, and various fees (such as servers, technical services, placement fees, and rent). Additionally, funds are used for communications to maximize the service's impact.
Then, 80% of the profits are donated to global reforestation projects through our partner, Eden Reforestation.
We retain the remaining 20% of profits as a reserve to manage unforeseen circumstances, to fully offset the emissions associated with our service, and to support the expansion of tree planting initiatives with new projects on the horizon.
