Plant the Forest works as a crowdfunding platform, we’re collecting money from people and businesses for tree planting. We can plant one tree or several hectares, it’s up to you - 1 tree costs 1000 tenge.
After donation you’ll get a digital certificate that confirms your contribution to forest restoration. Make a contribution for yourself, your company or present it confirms your contribution to forest restoration. You can make it for yourself, your organization or present it as a gift to a loved one on a memorable date.
