Where does my donation go?

At TreeSisters, we pride ourselves on our transparency. 85% of your donation will help support the green cover work and the behavioural transformation work that TreeSisters does. The remaining 15% covers our core costs. 

We have included the latest breakdown for clarity and understanding of how this is distributed: 

• 70% of your donation: funds a diverse portfolio of community-led tropical reforestation projects, each aiming to expand the forests and avoid further deforestation in their unique way. Projects are designed to support local communities, improve livelihoods, protect critically endangered species, and encourage gender parity and the participation of women.
• 15% of your donation funds our behavioural change work, championing a shift from a consumer to a restorative culture. We inspire feminine-based leadership by providing resources, experiences and communities that invigorate personal and collective action on behalf of the planet.
• 15% of your donation is spent on making sure the TreeSisters is providing the best possible services we can. This means having systems and people in place to find projects that support a healthier, restorative balance. Education and publicity campaigns to let our supporters know what we are doing and the importance of their contribution. It also means reaching people worldwide and covering our staff costs, including paying those staff a fair salary and attracting the best people to work for us.
