Shopping 1 Extreme Poverty
The Re Write Our Story program is founded on a proven Recruit & Restore strategy, which has focused on large-scale tree planting and long-term forest conservation projects as the means of reviving vulnerable communities and providing work and income benefits for local villagers and indigenous people.
Both Madagascar and Tanzania fall within the world’s top 3 countries where extreme poverty has the most devastating impact. Around 50% of people in Tanzania live off less than $2.15 a day, while in Madagascar the figure may be as high as 80%. On top of helping villagers meet urgent food and healthcare needs, the household income boost from our projects provides ancillary benefits for local families, such as: improved access to schools resources to pay off debts ability to start micro-enterprises.
