The goals of this project are to: 
  • Plant and successfully grow one million tees in ten years (2008 to 2017) worldwide.
  • Help the new generation understand the importance and impact of trees in their lives and in the ecosystem. This will in turn give a better life to our future generations.
  • Teach poor farmers how to plant appropriate trees so they may more productively utilize low quality farm lands impacted by issues such as salinity and lack of water.

 

 

Hidaya gives seedlings at no or minimal cost to students, farmers and communities to encourage tree planting activity.  In addition Hidaya also provides brochures explaining the ecological benefits of trees and instructions how to successfully nurture them.


For each school and community, a team lead and back-up member is appointed; he/she is responsible for implementing and coordinating the project successfully, monitor, and report on the survival rate of trees every month. This process allows Hidaya to gain a good understanding of the issues and critical success factors so appropriate improvements can be made during next planting season.

 

Vegetables for Healthy Living:

 

 

In Pakistan, Hidaya is also distributing seeds of vegetables to students at no cost, including:

 

* Opo/Kadoo/Lauki (Gourd)

* Zucchini/Toori/Turai

* Cucumber/Kheera/Kaakri


 

These seeds are offered to students interested in growing their own vegetables at almost no cost to them.  These vegetables typically grow as vines that spread over roof tops and walls requiring no extra open space.
