Plant-It 2000 is an international nonprofit foundation that plants a tree for every dollar donated. One tree . One celebration of Nature and beauty . It'll be the best dollar ever spent. A tree's roots will prevent or reduce soil erosion and water pollution.
Trees recharge groundwater and sustain stream flow.
Strategically placed, they are living snow fences, holding snow away from roads, reducing maintenance costs. They absorb dust and heat and reduce glare. They supply material for houses, furniture and paper products. Trees cure illnesses. One out of every four pharmaceutical products used in the U.S. comes from tropical forest plants.
