P urpose on the Planet supports improved livelihoods for vulnerable communities in Madagascar and Tanzania through large-scale tree planting and long-term forest conservation programs, in order to avert the worst effects of extreme poverty today and climate change tomorrow. Since 2012, the community-based projects we support have served as a holistic platform for transforming a spiral of poverty-based decline into a virtuous cycle of positive development instead.
