Guidecraft Partners with Reforestation Nonprofit One Tree Planted


We care deeply about the planet and contributing to creating a better, healthier world for children and their families. As a company that strives to facilitate and support lasting connections between children and their world, we are honored to partner with One Tree Planted. In the hopes of enhancing our own sustainability efforts and furthering One Tree Planted’s global reforestation mission, every kids’ toys or furniture purchase made on the Guidecraft website will plant a tree.

What is One Tree Planted?

One Tree Planted is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit on a mission to make it simple for anyone to help the environment by planting trees. Their projects span the globe and are done in partnership with local communities and knowledgeable experts to create an impact for nature, people and wildlife.

Plant a tree with every purchase

Your Guidecraft purchase makes a difference. Trees clean our air and water, create habitats for biodiversity, contribute to our health and wellbeing, and create jobs for social impact. At checkout, you can choose from four different projects that Guidecraft has chosen to support.

Biodiversity

We are facing a climate crisis and the rapid loss of Earth’s remaining wild places. As we lose habitats ,we also lose biodiversity. With your help, One Tree Planted will protect endangered species by increasing forest cover, restore holistic ecosystems for a range of flora and fauna, and improve soil stability by restoring degraded areas.

AFR100: Plant Trees for Africa

Africa is at risk due to deforestation that is 4 times the global average rate. Not only does this threaten the livelihoods of its local communities, it also affects the planet as a whole. The African Forest Landscape Restoration Initiative aims to restore 100 million hectares of deforested and degraded land in Africa by the year 2030. With your help, One Tree Planted will provide jobs to minimize poverty in local communities, improve climate change resilience and mitigation, and restore forest cover to improve food security.

Amazon Rainforest

Due to logging, unsustainable agriculture, and forest fires, the Amazon Rainforest is a high risk zone or deforestation and degradation. With your help, One Tree Planted will protect and restore primary forests to stabilize the climate, conserve habitat for the Amazon Rainforest’s iconic wildlife species, and provide sustainable livelihoods to local people through agroforestry.

Forest Fire Recovery

The latest forest fire season on the west coast of North America has been extreme. But an impactful way to help the affected regions directly is through reforestation. With your help, One Tree Planted will plant trees to restore damaged ecosystems, stabilize soil, support the water cycle, and slowly recover the vital ecosystem services that we all depend on.
