TerraMatch 1.6.0

The importance of trees in combating climate change and enhancing lives is increasingly recognized worldwide. Consequently, there has been a notable surge in global tree planting efforts. However, the process of successful tree cultivation is nuanced, necessitating careful consideration of species selection and suitable planting locations. Only with the right trees planted in appropriate environments can we truly see benefits for both people and the climate.

Fortunately, a network of local experts possesses the knowledge required to cultivate these trees effectively. Nevertheless, a significant challenge remains: the absence of a centralized platform for these innovators to connect with potential funders who are interested in supporting their initiatives.

In response to this gap, TerraMatch has emerged as a global platform designed to bridge these two essential groups. Drawing from extensive research conducted by the World Resources Institute, TerraMatch employs a distinctive algorithm that aligns funders' preferences—spanning geographic locations to specific land types—with vetted projects aimed at ensuring effective tree planting.

This initiative aspires to facilitate a collaborative effort between individuals and funders to collectively contribute to the growth of one trillion trees.
