Ask your people to plant with you.
A birthday. A wedding. The day your company turns ten. Plant trees instead of collecting gifts: Start Planting turns the moments that matter to you into a forest, and makes it easy for the people you love to join in.
Built for you
Whether you are in a suit, a party hat or muddy boots. The same tool for very different evenings.
Instead of another present.
Six friends are hiking the Alps this summer. Every summit they reach plants another hundred trees.
The plan
One link in the group chat, with a photo of the route and a goal of 600 trees.
The hike
Friends back home give at every summit, and each gift gets a thank-you on the spot.
Years later
Somewhere in Ghana, their forest is taller than any of them.
Up and running in a few minutes!

Yours, end to end
Nothing here looks like a template. Unless you want it to.
A fundraiser page is yours from the first pixel to the thank-you note. Start from a theme, or shuffle until one feels right, then change anything.
Stage Mode
Ready for the big speech?
Raise in style. Put your fundraiser on the big screen with a live total, a leaderboard and every gift popping up as it lands. Guests scan the code and give from their seat.
Any smart TV, Chromecast, Apple TV or projector. Nothing to install.
Tonight becomes a forest.
Every gift in this room takes root in Ghana and keeps growing long after the last song.
More than trees
Every fundraiser also carries Plant-for-the-Planet.
A share of every fundraiser goes to Plant-for-the-Planet itself. That is what keeps the whole journey moving: children who become Climate Justice Ambassadors, forests that come back in Mexico, Ghana and Spain, free tools for the people doing the planting, and a voice in the rooms where forest policy is made.
So when your friends give to your birthday forest, they are also giving a nine-year-old somewhere the chance to plant her first tree.
