Dollar Curtains + Blinds partners with reforestation initiative

For every order received in December, Dollar Curtains + Blinds will plant a tree on its customers’ behalf as part of One Tree Planted’s reforestation project within Australia.

“Working with One Tree Planted is a great fit for Dollar Curtains + Blinds,” said Dollar Curtains + Blinds Marketing Manager, Danielle Crosby. “We are always looking for ways to reduce our environmental footprint and give back and what better way than giving Australia more trees?”.

The donations will help to plant thousand of trees across Australia to recover forests affected by the 2019-20 Black Summer Bushfires and restore native habitat vital for wildlife, including in areas requiring rehabilitation or ecological diversity to provide homes for animals.

Dollar Curtains + Blinds has now committed to a new on-going partnership with OTP, where by they have pledged on-going donations to their reforestation project within Australia that will help restore native habitat vital for wildlife.

With over 123 million hectares of native forests, Australia has the seventh largest forest area in the world, making up three per cent of the Earth’s forests.

The bushfire crisis in Australia has been one of the worst in the country’s history. The land, wildlife, people and businesses affected from this disaster has been unfathomable with nearly six million hectares (15 million acres) of bush devastated and over 480 million animals killed across the country, as of January 2020.

“We’re excited for the opportunity to work with Dollar Curtains + Blinds on such an impactful project,” said One Tree Planted founder and Chief Environmental Evangelist, Matt Hill. “We admire the company’s commitment to planting a tree for every order sold in December 2020. It’s
a prime example of how many brands can make positive change for our planet.”
