ADOPT A TREE!

ADOPT-A-TREE 

...and support its first 5 years! 

A joint project between the Higaonon indigenous people on the island of Mindanao, Southern Philippines and the Missionary Society of St. Columban

Roy, Nap, Joebert and Jimmy are all members of the Higaonon Indigenous Community in Dansolihon, Cagayan de Oro City, Mindanao. By collecting the seeds of indigenous rainforest tree species that still survive in the upper mountain slopes and nurturing them into young trees that they plant in their tribal ancestral lands and caring for them for five (5) years until they are able to start developing into generation of rainforest trees; these young men are putting the indigenous ecological wisdom they have inherited from their forebears into helping to save Our Planet. 

Through your annual donation of Php 2,000.00 or Php 200.00 monthly, you can now adopt a young Philippine native rainforest tree. All donations towards this project will go into giving Php 10,000 pesos per month to each of the four young men to help support them and their families while they carry out the really important work of scavenging the forest floors and collecting seeds of these native species, growing them in the nursery until they are ready to be planted, and watering the saplings and taking care of them until they can survive on their own after about five (5) years. This project aims to plant and grow a total of 52, 000 trees.
