This Christmas, imagine something special: instead of a tree standing in your living room, your Christmas tree is taking root under the warm African sun, growing strong, giving shade, and bearing fruit for rural communities in Mali, Senegal, and Togo. Every year, Naturefriends International’s Christmas Fundraising Campaign for the Climate Fund brings people together in a truly heartwarming tradition standing for solidarity and a good future. 

It’s a way to celebrate the season not just with lights and ornaments, but with hope and action. Many Naturefriends around the world have already made this a beautiful ritual, gifting their loved ones something more meaningful than ever before: fruit trees that bring hope and new prospects to our project regions in African countries.

For just €15, you can finance the planting of three fruit trees and support environmental education activities. This way, you help to empower local communities in building a good future. 

Every tree planted as part of the Climate Fund projects provides families with valuable fruit, regenerates the soil, and combats climate change. 

Because every meaningful gesture deserves to be shared, we’ll send you a beautiful donation certificate, perfect for gifting someone special. A small piece of paper, representing a big, living change.

 Here’s how it works: 
1️⃣ Transfer at least €15 to the Naturefriends Climate Fund: https://climatefund.nf-int.org/en/donate/ 
2️⃣ Send an email with the date and amount of your transfer to elena.teutsch@nf-int.org 
3️⃣ Receive your certificate via email (or by post if you prefer) — ready to print, wrap, and gift with love. 

And if you’d like to make your impact last beyond the holidays, consider a tree-sponsorship. With their regular support, tree-sponsors help to ensure that tree planting and educational activities in our project regions are continuously supported, thus making a particularly effective contribution to a bright future for all people.
