Six innovative students from Sweden, involved in a high school business project, have chosen to support our work by selling rainforest trees to their customers.
The young adults have been given the challenge of learning how to run a business, by setting up a new company, Greenify UF, and developing a product to market. Having decided they wanted to make their business socially responsible, they decided to support our Rainforest Corridor restoration project in Sri Lanka. Carl Svensson from Greenify UF says "Our business idea is to run a small company without profits connected to environmental awareness".
The company is offering their customers the chance to plant a rainforest tree with us, and in return they will receive a certificate commemorating their purchase. Gift certificates are also available for people looking for Christmas, birthday or anniversary presents too.
Our supporters from around the world make a huge different to our work, and this inventive partnership with Greenify UF is raising awareness of the threats to Sri Lanka's rainforest as well as helping to restore vital habitat.
