About Us

About the Better Globe Forestry Foundation

The Better Globe Forestry Foundation is a registered non-profit dedicated to transforming drylands into thriving ecosystems and resilient communities. With decades of forestry expertise in East Africa, we integrate tree planting, microfinance, and education into a regenerative model recognized internationally for its innovation and scalability.

Why Go Global is Different

Not Charity. Regeneration. Go Global is not another tree-planting initiative. It is a fully integrated, never-before-seen development system that fights desertification, empowers farmers, builds financial resilience, and invests in the next generation.

Trees that Transform the Land:

Sustainable timber (Melia volkensii – dryland mahogany) grown to construction standards.

Fruit and nut trees donated to farmers for direct household income.

After 15 years, timber harvest funds double the original impact through replanting and reinvestment in microfinance and education.

About Us

Finance that Builds Resilience.

Community-managed microfinance funds for women and farmer groups.
Supports tools, seedlings, and small businesses that ensure long-term self-sufficiency.

Education that Changes Generations

€5 per package invests in education, ICT, and school infrastructure.
Implemented in partnership with Close the Gap and other world-class organisations, ensuring children gain access to digital learning and opportunities.

Lifetime of Change

The Model: €60 A Lifetime of Change

Each €60 donation package includes:

2 fruit/cashew trees for farmers.
2 sustainability trees (Melia volkensii) managed by BGFF.
€5 for education.
€5 for microfinance.

After 15 years, without new donations:

4 fruit trees donated.
4 Melia trees replanted.
€10 in education.
€10 in microfinance.

Your impact doubles. And the cycle continues.

Scaling Up

Scaling Up: From Packages to Flagship Programmes.

While each €60 package is powerful on its own, funders demand scale. A €10M programme delivers:

670,000 trees (Melia & cashew)

6,000 farmers supported with market-ready cashew trees and linked to a cashew processing plant.

€833,000 for education – ICT integration in 200+ schools.

€833,000 for microfinance – revolving funds for women and farmer cooperatives.

This ambition directly supports the SDGs on climate, education, and poverty eradication, while delivering measurable national impact.

Why Partner

Sustainability, Transparency & Trust

15-Year Maintenance Included

Full silvicultural care (weeding, pruning, gapping, pest management), with farmers progressively taking over management.

Continuous Farmer Empowerment

Formation of farmer groups, ongoing training in forestry and agribusiness, and integration with markets (e.g., cashew factory).

Independent Oversight

Full transparency, audited funds, and reporting. UNESCO and university partners provide research and donor credibility.

Risk Mitigation

Drought resilience through Melia volkensii. Diversified farmer income (cashew, fruit, microfinance). UNESCO’s fundraising role stabilises donor risk.

Built for Visionary Donors.

Donations starting at €1M fuel a regenerative system with built-in transparency, measurable outcomes, and long-term returns.

Governments, corporates, and NGOs co-lead with us in a UNESCO-backed partnership.

The model is designed for perpetual regeneration: communities become independent custodians of forests and income after 15 years.
