Trees
Here's a way for you to help out in the reforestation efforts at the Beer-Sheba Project. Trees are vital to the all aspects of the Project. They will provide much needed protection from wind, provide shade for animals, increase biodiversity, add nitrogen to soil, and provide income for villagers through a carefully managed program of charcoal production. As a token of appreciation for your contribution of $100 or more, we will place a sign by the tree acknowledging your involvement, and we will also send you a yearly photo update of your tree!Photo Album (click for more)
