About Global Resource Alliance
Global Resource Alliance, Inc.(GRA) is a non-profit organization headquartered in Ojai, California. It was founded in April 2002 to provide financial and technical support to community organizations in the world’s least developed regions working for social, economic and environmental change. GRA’s local organization has partnered with Belgian NGO, WeForest since 2011 to plant trees with institutions, such as schools and churches, and individuals and farmer groups, who have collectively planted over 1 million trees through their Tree Program throughout the Mara Region in Tanzania. These seedlings are grown in two nurseries, one in Utegi (Rorya) and one in Butiama. Majority of tree seedlings have been distributed to individual farmers who come to the nurseries to pick the tree seedlings at subsidized price as per species of their choice. Some of the seedlings have been distributed to institutions (schools, churches and other government institutions) for free. Beneficiaries are given basic training on transplanting and managing tree seedlings, and establishing their own tree nursery. The seedlings and trees are monitored over time to verify tree mortality rates and offer technical support to beneficiaries on how to best manage and benefit from their trees.
