Open source enterprise content management (ECM) vendor Knowledge Tree announced quite a generous offer today. Every time a customer places an order over $4,500, the company will plant a tree in Africa on their behalf. Food & Trees for Africa (FTFA) will do the actual overseas planting and the customer will receive a certificate outlining details of the contribution made in their honor.
Lindy Grobler, Marketing Manager at KnowledgeTree says partnering with FTFA was a natural choice. KnowledgeTree was originally founded in South Africa and maintains a base of operations there, we felt it was important to support a local organization. After researching several African environmental programs, we chose FTFA because of its commitment to both environmental sustainability and neighborhood beautification.
