Donating one or more fruit trees ensures that a poor farmer will have a source of income from their fruit for years to come. At the same time the environment is protected.

With a gift of only $5 you can ensure that a grafted commercial fruit tree is planted in Haiti. For $5, $10 or $25 you can really make an impact.

Each tree will generate an annual income of $25-$50 for more than 20 years.

 



With a gift of $25-$100, you can adopt an orchard.

This level of support enables us to give 5-20 trees to a family.

This ensures that they will be able to meet their household expenses - such as schooling, clothes, medical costs and food - for years to come.

Income from high-value fruit trees can make a big difference.

It is the difference between the abject poverty of subsistence farming and the hope generated by commercial agriculture.




You may choose to plant the seeds of hope in another way. A gift of $10-20 will provide a farmer with seeds to plant ORE’s quality protein maize, a complete-protein variety of corn.

Known by the acronym QPM, it is a wonderful source of nutrition in a country where far too many people suffer from malnutrition. QPM seeds are produced using natural breeding techniques – there is no genetic modification.

Yields per hectare are 2-3 times that of local varieties and the nutritive value of its protein is nearly equivalent to cow’s milk. (QPM produce 70-100 % more of two essential amino acids—lysine and tryptophan.
Since 1985, the Organization for the Rehabilitation of the Environment
has developed and operated fruit tree grafting and crop improvement programs in rural Haiti.
During those years several international agencies have generously provided the funding that made it possible to maintain continuity of our development projects. These include USAID, the European Union, the Canadian Embassy, Inter-American Development Bank and other contributors.
