Plant a Tree for $1

Plant one tree with $1 – and grow an entire future.

A single tree does more than restore a forest.

It protects soil and water, creates income,
and opens a new future for families on the frontlines of climate change.

Monitoring & care

Checking survival rates, replanting when needed, and collecting GPS photos to ensure your trees grow for years.

100% of your $1 goes directly to planting, growing, and protecting trees — and supporting the families who care for them.

Double impact: forests restored, families empowered

One tree doesn’t just restore a forest — it helps a family build a better future.

Forests

Healthy forests, healing planet

  • We plant native and high-impact species like bamboo, Kiri, and sandalwood.
  • Forests capture carbon, protect soil and water, and restore degraded land.
  • Wildlife returns when habitats reconnect and grow.
  • A healthy tree cover becomes a shield against floods, droughts, and extreme heat.
/plant-a-tree/SectionDoubleImpactImg2.png

People

Stronger families, thriving communities

  • Families receive high-quality seedlings and the tools they need to begin.
  • We train them in agroforestry and regenerative farming.
  • Their forest products — bamboo shoots, timber, fruits — connect to fair markets.
  • Income grows, migration drops, and children stay in school.
When forests thrive, families thrive. And when families thrive, they become the strongest guardians of the forest.

This is not just charity. It’s empowerment.

When forests thrive, families thrive.
And when families thrive, they become the strongest protectors of the forest.
The trees you plant aren’t handouts — they are investments in dignity and opportunity.
One tree can mean a mother earning enough from bamboo shoots to keep her child in school.
A row of trees can stop a hillside from collapsing.A small forest can secure a family’s entire future.

Choose the impact you want to create

Every level of giving unlocks a different story of change. All of them begin with a simple decision to act today.

Right now, Grow One Future is working with partner communities in:

  • Vietnam — bamboo, sandalwood & native forests on landslide-prone hillsides.
  • Laos — ecological restoration around critical watershed villages.
  • New pilot sites in other climate-vulnerable regions.

As projects grow, we collect survival data, photos and stories to share back with donors. Your trees don’t just exist in a report – they exist on a map you can point to.

Why join Grow One Future’s movement?

You’re not just offsetting your footprint. You’re helping redesign how forests and livelihoods work together.

For people & planet

Every tree heals the land and opens a better future for a family who depends on it.

Locally led

Projects are co-designed and led by local communities who know their forests—and their needs—best.

Protecting communities

Trees become living shields against floods, landslides, droughts and the shocks of a changing climate.

Together, we can

Thousands of small gifts add up to entire landscapes restored. No one has to do everything alone.

Reversing poverty

Forests are not a barrier to development—they become the engine of long-term, dignified income.

Hope for the next generation

Trees planted today will be shade, timber, food and security for children and grandchildren tomorrow.

People who just planted hope

Your generosity is part of a much bigger movement. Every minute, more people join in to restore forests and empower families.

Voices from the ground

Farhan A.

A participating family in northern Vietnam

“When our village started planting bamboo with Grow One Future, we did not expect much. But after two seasons, we had food from shoots, income from poles, and no more landslides washing away our fields.
The trees are not just trees. They are school fees, repaired roofs, medicine for our parents. They are the reason my son can grow up here instead of leaving to find work far away.”
