💌 The good news is here: we did it!

A few months ago, we asked you to help us make good news happen through our campaign, bringing Earth Smiles to the ground and regreening Samburu County, Northern 🇰🇪. And now, the campaign has come to an end, and the good news is here 🌱.

Together, we raised 3,136 Earth Smiles, meaning that 388,864m2 of land can be regreened. The digging season is now underway, and soon, the rains will come to let the regreening begin. 🌧️

While our Bundraiser may have come to an end, our mission doesn’t stop here. We’re still working to fight , cool down the planet, and make more good news happen.

So, let’s keep digging!

Big impact starts with one action 👆✨

On their own, a handful of grass seeds, a single tree, one dug Earth Smile can look like a small thing. But this is how landscapes come back: one deliberate act at a time, repeated by thousands of hands, season after season.

That's our work. Sown grass seeds grow into whole grasslands 🌾. A tree, regrown from its roots, gets a second life. One Earth Smile helps regreen 124m² of land 🌱.

Your impact can start small too. One costs €8. Together through the Bundraiser, we've already raised more than 3,000, with 7,000 to go.

Let’s start with a small action and turn it into something big together 🤝!

Good news from the 🌱

With the rainy season approaching, we’re digging in Samburu, , together with the Westgate community. Thanks to everyone's contributions, we’ve already reached 30% of our goal, and those are now taking shape on the ground!

But we’re only getting started! If one Earth Smile can help regreen 124m2 of land, can you imagine how many hectares we could help restore if we raised all 10,000 Earth Smiles? Take a guess in the comments 👇 and help us get even more Earth Smiles in the ground before the rains arrive. 🌧️

Turns out, working with nature can be kinda chic. 🌱

Giving rain more time to infiltrate the soil. Protecting trees that can grow back. Creating the conditions for nature to recover.

Sometimes, restoration is less about doing more, and more about working with what’s already there!

Because given the chance, nature knows what to do. 🌍

⛅️Same landscape, different season.

Rain is essential for landscapes to thrive. The arrival of the rainy season used to be fairly stable, but this pattern is now becoming less predictable. Because of the , every drop matters more than ever 💧

In , for example, water is what turns grass into a livelihood. When the rains come, grasses grow tall and strong until it’s time to set seed. Maasai women’s groups harvest those seeds and sell them to projects or at local markets. In 2025 alone, women’s groups harvested more than 12,663 kg of seed, earning an estimated €54,000 in total 🌾

Where the seed goes back into the ground, grasses return. Where grasses return, the land holds water better, and the next rains go further.

Changing weather patterns don't stay isolated, but rather they reinforce each other, everywhere ☀️

It's easy to think of a crisis as "over there." But there is no "over there" anymore.

🌍 The solution isn't to look away. It's to care for the land we have left and to bring back what we've lost. That's what we do every day, together with farmers and communities across Sub-Saharan Africa: restoring degraded landscapes, bringing back trees and vegetation, and giving the earth a chance to cool down again.

Because vegetation isn't just green, it's nature's AC. Trees and plants cool the air, hold water in the soil, and bring back rainfall patterns that are becoming increasingly unpredictable. Restore a landscape in one place, and the effects ripple out: cooler air, healthier rain cycles, a more stable climate for everyone. 🌱

🪏It doesn't happen "over there." It happens for all of us.

You can’t tell the story of a restored landscape without showing who restored it 🌱

Widen the frame and there they are: farmers, pastoralists, whole communities busy restoring ecosystems by digging, seeding, pruning and protecting.

The full picture of is always a people picture. 💚

a landscape can take years, but the results are worth the wait 🌱

In Pembamoto, the journey began with digging Earth Smiles in 2018. Since then, more than 5,100 Earth Smiles have been dug in the area, all ready to help capture rainwater and bring the landscape back to life 🌧️

You might notice that 2026 looks less green than 2025, but it doesn’t mean has slowed down… This year, in fact, the community harvested large amounts of grasses and around 650kg of grass seeds! 🌾

One of the pictures we didn’t share yet, back from when the rains came to make this Grass Seed Bank in Olkaria, , thrive! 🌱

Grass seed banks are so much more than they seem. Yes, they yield seeds that can be reused for other restoration purposes, but they’re also proper sustainable businesses, providing work and income to women groups.

Managed by Maasai women, these protected patches of communal land slowly transform into flourishing green fields. The seeds harvested get sold on local markets (or to us, for other regreening projects 💚), and that income goes towards school fees, healthcare, and family.

Degraded land comes back to life, and the women running the show gain independence and status in their community. Full-circle magic. 🙌
