Silver Spring, MD, April 22, 2010 – As if earthquakes and poverty were not enough, the poorest nation in the Western Hemisphere is now facing seasonal rains that can bring flooding and tragedy. To help address this problem, Carbonfund.org today announced that its “Million Tree Challenge” campaign is redirecting all of its donations for the next three months to tree planting in Haiti. The Million Tree Challenge is a campaign launched in March to plant a million trees by making it easy and affordable for businesses and individuals to donate to the campaign.
