What if business wasn’t just about profit, but about planting real roots?

At AnswerConnect, giving back isn’t just a nice-to-have; it’s baked into how we do business.

From the moment a client joins us, or a new team member starts, something meaningful happens: a tree is planted in their name. Every single month. Why? Because people and planet go hand-in-hand, and we believe in building a better future for both.

Our partner in reforestation: Trees for the Future

To meet our tree-planting goals, we’re proud to partner with Trees for the Future (TREES), a remarkable non-profit that’s rebuilding ecosystems and changing lives.

TREES trains farmers to regenerate their land using sustainable agroforestry. That means mixing fruit trees, income-generating crops, and ground cover to turn once-depleted soil into thriving mini-ecosystems called Forest Gardens. The impact? These gardens don’t just help break cycles of hunger and poverty; they restore possibility.

  • 370+ million trees planted
  • 41,000 acres restored
  • 470,000+ lives transformed

And it doesn’t stop there. TREES also empowers women, improves food security, and supports local economies. One tree at a time.

Setting down roots: Our Balquhidder forest

Most of our tree planting happens where it’s needed most. But we’ve also put down roots elsewhere. Our forest in Balquhidder, Scotland, is a growing symbol of our commitment to sustainability and care for our shared future.

Michael, one of our founders, recently visited the site to reflect on why giving back matters, not just for the planet, but for the people behind every business decision.
