Mangrove Planting is So Much Fun

By Tyrone Bennett | CEO of Action Change

I am thrilled to share that thanks to the generosity shown during the festive season, our first mangrove planting site is officially underway. It is a humble beginning, but it represents the first steps in a much larger vision to restore these critical coastal ecosystems. Watching these saplings take root is a reminder that even the smallest efforts can lead to massive environmental change.

We have a clear path forward, but to keep our team in the field and the seedlings growing, we are shifting our focus to a new phase of fundraising. Over the coming months, our volunteers are moving beyond traditional online donations and taking the mission into the community. We are planning a series of local events designed to bring people together, get our hands dirty, and raise the support needed to scale up our planting efforts.

The timing could not be more perfect for us to gain some extra ground. We are participating in GlobalGiving’s Little by Little campaign from March 17th to the 20th. This is an incredible boost for our work because every donation up to 50 dollars will be matched at 50 percent while funds last.

  • Your 50 dollar donation turns into 75 dollars.

  • That 75 dollars provides the resources for us to source, transport, and successfully plant dozens of new mangrove seedlings.

Please save the date for March 17th. We are also asking you to share our story and our event plans with your networks. Every new person who learns about the vital role mangroves play in our planet’s health makes us that much stronger. We have the sites identified and our team is ready to plant, so let us turn this initial success into a full scale forest restoration.

Thank you for trusting us with your support and for being such a vital part of this growing forest.
