SEEDING & SAVING CANOPIES
OUR MISSION
Global warming threatens our environment and life on earth. Our goal is to raise funds for organizations that promote tropical reforestation, prevent deforestation, and engage in related activities to address this climate emergency.
OUR APPROACH
Protecting and restoring our tropical forests and other natural systems can mitigate global warming and its impacts. We have identified organizations with strong track records of success and efficiency in these activities.
We wish to amplify the positive work of these organizations and act as a pass-through organization without taking any of the donations. We continue to educate ourselves on the current science and best practices in order to be a trusted source of consolidated knowledge as you choose your climate cooling path.

ABOUT US
We are five friends in Portland, Oregon, committed to making meaningful contributions to address global warming - moving from the despair of inaction to the hopefulness of action. Our backgrounds are diverse, including sustainable agriculture, business, law, and non-profit project management.
Our initial focus centers on protecting and restoring tropical forests, one of the climate’s most valuable assets. This includes slowing deforestation, accelerating reforestation, fostering seed and forest diversity, and creating sustainable business models for indigenous peoples caring for and protecting tropical forests.
We ask you to join us by contributing to one or more of the organizations making great strides in these areas. All your funds go directly to our supported organizations.
