About Us
Guided by the national vision of planting 15 billion trees by 2032.
The Tree Adoption Foundation is a community-driven environmental organization dedicated to restoring Kenya’s ecosystems while empowering its people.
Guided by the national vision of planting 15 billion trees by 2032, our mission goes beyond tree planting—we are nurturing a culture of environmental stewardship, resilience, and shared prosperity.
We work hand in hand with women, youth, widows, and schools to make tree planting in all 47 counties in Kenya not only a climate solution but also a tool for empowerment.
By distributing 10 million fruit and indigenous tree seedlings per county by 2032, we provide communities with sustainable sources of food, income, and environmental protection. Our school partnerships inspire a new generation of environmental champions, ensuring that the values of conservation are passed on to future leaders. This will increase the number to 470 million trees by 2032.
Since inception, the Tree Adoption Foundation has supported thousands of households and institutions across Kenya to embrace tree planting as a livelihood opportunity.
Through training, seedling distribution, and community engagement, we have already contributed significantly toward the government’s national tree-planting goals—transforming degraded lands into green spaces, protecting watersheds, and fostering climate resilience.
Our Target For Tree Adoption in Kenya
Counties Data
According to the County Integrated Development Plans (CIDP) 2023/24-2027/28 data, Siaya is the county in Kenya with the least percentage of forest cover, while Nyeri leads with more than 40% of forest cover. This disparity notwithstanding the fact that Siaya county does not belong to the category of ASAL (Arid and Semi Arid Lands) counties makes it more crucial for the local communities all over Kenya to participate in environmental conservation practices. Therefore Tree Adoption Foundation seeks to work in Kenya to mitigate the effects of climate change and increase the forest cover by a margin of 5%.
Our objectives
To accelerate Kenya’s commitment to planting 15 billion trees.
To empower vulnerable groups—especially women, youth, and widows—through sustainable livelihoods in tree-based enterprises.
To integrate environmental education in schools and communities.
To champion climate action that restores biodiversity, safeguards ecosystems, and combats desertification.
