Why this matters

One member, one tree.

Climate change and deforestation threaten the planet. Trees restore biodiversity and provide livelihoods — and Rotary’s global network can lead by example.

If every one of Rotary’s 1.4 million members planted a single tree, that alone is 1.4 million trees. Clubs plant locally, corporates, schools and NGOs join in, and the clubs contributing most are recognised.

A tree in your name

₹299 plants one tree, recorded in the name you give.

Three years of maintenance

The trees are looked after for three years after planting day.

Everyone raising for the forest

Each has their own page and share link. Contributions that come through their link are credited to them by name.
