Nurturing the Next Generation Through Education
At the North American Forest Foundation we use our knowledge, resources and voice to create a world where people understand and value the importance of sustainable forestry and choosing wood to ensure a healthier future for our children, industry, and planet.
Together, we can dispel the myths and get kids excited by teaching them The Truth About Trees — the world’s only continually renewable resource. With your help, we’ll educate one million kids by 2030 to close the skills gap, support teachers with free resources, and ensure a healthier planet.
Wise, sustainable scientific forest management PROTECTS forest and requires the thoughtful and deliberate harvesting of trees that in turn, can be made into useful products that simultaneously sequester carbon.
