Hey there,
I'm Liz, WeForest's Corporate Partnership Development Manager. I wanted to fill you in about some good news for our Zambian reforestation projects, as well as letting you know about our plans for this year’s Giving Tuesday later in November.
We were thrilled to see that during COP27, Zambia’s president Hakainde Hichilema and President of the European Union Ursula von der Leyen signed an agreement for a long-term political commitment to conserve, restore, and secure the sustainable use of Zambia's forests.
Our projects in the miombo belt in southern Africa are creating community forests, supporting farming families and regenerating reserves in these precious forests, on which over 65 million people depend - and we couldn’t do it without you.
This year, WeForest is participating in Giving Tuesday with GlobalGiving. This 24-hour campaign takes place on 29th November, a global day of giving celebrated by nonprofits, corporations, and donors alike! GlobalGiving is offering a $1,200,000 incentive fund to organizations who receive the most funding on the day so we're super excited to see what WeForest can achieve with your help.
Without your kind donations none of this would be possible, so thank you once again from all of us here at WeForest.
