PLANTING TREES TO COMBAT
HUNGER, POVERTY & CLIMATE CHANGE

Our Partners

Since 2012, SGI has set the pace for large-scale planting efforts with more than 60 million trees planted across 16 states of India—and the number continues to rise with every season.

Sustainable Green Initiative was created with a simple but far-reaching purpose: to distribute, plant, and nurture fruit and timber trees for communities that need them most, while steadily strengthening India’s green cover. SGI ensures that each sapling is nurtured for three to thirty years so it has the best chance to survive, grow, and transform the landscape around it.

This mission is carried forward through a wide network of partners—community trusts, private homesteads and farmlands, orphanages, old-age homes, government schools, and many others. Every stakeholder involved not only contributes to the effort but also shares in the benefits that these trees bring to land, livelihoods, and future generations.

What Vision Guides SGI?

SGI is guided by a vision of restoring India’s landscapes while strengthening the communities that depend on them. It aims to make tree planting a pathway to healthier soils, stronger rural incomes, and climate resilience. By combining agroforestry, afforestation, coastal resilience through mangroves, enhanced water security, and community partnership, SGI envisions a future where every planted tree supports both the environment and the people who care for it.

Solutions That Drive Our Work

When SGI speaks of solutions, it refers to practical, ground-tested measures that address both environmental decline and community vulnerability. These solutions include large-scale tree planting, afforestation across degraded landscapes, and mangrove restoration to shield coastal communities from sea-level rise, cyclones, and storms.

Agroforestry models restore soil health and strengthen farmer incomes, while water-harvesting systems recharge the land. SGI’s approach blends ecological restoration with social impact, ensuring every intervention improves livelihoods while healing ecosystems. From creating green buffers in climate-vulnerable regions to supporting small farmers with tools, training, and infrastructure, SGI’s solutions are scalable, community-led, and built for long-term sustainability.
