Trees Without Borders has officially surpassed 30800 trees planted across schools and public spaces, marking a significant milestone in its mission to restore ecosystems and empower communities across Africa.
The initiative, which began as a grassroots effort, has grown into a cross-border environmental movement focused on indigenous tree planting and climate education.
Founder Bob Riyete Mavende emphasised the importance of youth participation:
“Our goal is not just to plant trees, but to plant hope. Every tree represents a young climate leader, a community restored, and a future protected.”
With expansion discussions underway in South Africa and renewed efforts in Victoria Falls, the organisation aims to scale partnerships with governments and private sector stakeholders.
The long-term vision? Facilitate the planting of millions of trees across African nations through structured partnerships and community mobilisation.
