Since 2019, BooksRun, an online bookseller, has collaborated with One Tree Planted to plant a total of 25,477 trees. Customers can accumulate points through book purchases, rentals, and buybacks and subsequently donate these points to support reforestation initiatives.
NEW YORK, Dec. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- BooksRun, a leading online bookselling platform, celebrates 25,477 trees planted to support global reforestation since it teamed up with One Tree Planted, an environmental non-profit tree-planting charity with reforestation projects all over the world.
BooksRun partnered with OneTreePlanted in 2019. As a company that prioritizes book reuse as its core business model, BooksRun strives to contribute to the circulation economy, keeps its focus on sustainability, and supports and promotes green principles. This partnership was a natural step for BooksRun, as it aligns with their goal of contributing to tree-planting efforts worldwide. OneTreePlanted, founded in 2014, is a non-profit charity organization that collects donations to support various reforestation projects aimed at combating deforestation, reversing biodiversity loss, and helping grow healthy forests.
To promote the tree-planting initiative, BooksRun launched an EcoRewards program. Customers can earn points for every order they make. They receive 2 points for every $1 spent or received when they buy, rent, or sell books. Upon reaching 200, 300, or 500 points, customers have an option to donate their points to One Tree Planted. For every milestone reached, One Tree Planted will plant 5, 10, or 15 trees accordingly. Such an exchange makes each customer a tree parent.
This Green Friday week, from November 22 to November 30, 2024, BooksRun's customers helped plant 215 trees. It's a great achievement for just one week of participation. It also demonstrated the BooksRun community's active involvement in the global reforestation efforts of One Tree Planted.
BookRun serves as a mediator between the customer and One Tree Planted, engaging and encouraging customers to participate in a green initiative and providing a donation base for trees to be planted as part of the organization's ongoing reforestation projects.
"BooksRun is committed to being ecologically responsible and impactful for the environment," said Kiryl Zarubau, Founder and CEO of BooksRun. "25K trees is a huge milestone for us, and we'll continue supporting and promoting the reforestation efforts of One Tree Planted and other such initiatives. We couldn't be more excited to work with our customers and partners, driving a positive change and building the bridge to a greener future."
