Project Report | Dec 15, 2025
Community Tree Planting Initiative - Uganda

By Zachery Onyango | Project Leader

Dear Supporters,

Thanks to your generosity, we have successfully planted over 400 trees with local communities in Uganda!

What We Achieved:

  • Planted 400+ trees, including fruit and shade trees, in schools, communal areas, and degraded lands.

  • Engaged community members, farmers, and youth in tree planting and care activities.

  • Trained participants in agroforestry, soil conservation, and climate-smart practices.

Impact:

  • The trees are improving soil fertility, restoring degraded land, and providing habitats for local wildlife.

  • Communities now have access to fruit, shade, and firewood, supporting livelihoods and nutrition.

  • Youth and students gained hands-on experience in environmental conservation, building lifelong stewardship habits.

Challenges & Learnings:

  • Some planting was affected by unpredictable weather, but community dedication ensured strong survival rates.

  • Maintaining young trees required ongoing support and mobilization, strengthening community collaboration.

Looking Ahead:

  • We plan to expand tree planting to nearby villages and schools.

  • Establish a local tree nursery to sustain long-term planting efforts.

  • Introduce fruit tree orchards to further support food security and climate resilience.

Thank You!
Your support has planted more than trees — it has planted hope, resilience, and a greener future for communities in Uganda.
