for our forests.
Sharing stories that serve our home and our people.
We’re For the Future—a nonprofit started by a group of friends with a dream to help reforest the ancestral lands of the Yangil Tribe in Zambales.
How it started
For the Future started from a simple idea: If we could get everyone we knew to plant a tree, we’d witness a whole new forest in our lifetime. So in October 2019, we started sharing the work.
Today, we are a group of young changemakers who are managing projects from reforestation to typhoon relief, using the same roots that we've grown with. We know that our stories hold power, and a brighter future ahead once we share them.
Slowly, we learned that building a better future is more than just about planting trees—it's about people, communities, and the stories we all share as an archipelago.
While nurturing our land is important, looking out for the communities that depend on nature and dedicate their lives protecting it, is just as crucial to making sure that we achieve our goal of a brighter future for all.
Through our work towards our goal, we use stories, art, culture, and creativity as our tools to get there.
Projects
In the Press
You don't need to be anyone else to be able to change the world.
Our team members all come from different roots but are committed to the same goal: making helping accessible for you, so you can easily support and empower our partner communities.
We hope to simplify the first step towards making your difference for our world. That by telling the stories of our friends, we in turn get more people to listen, then to act.
