Green Re-Evolution Discover

We regenerate the earth by planting trees to fight desertification and mangroves to protect coasts, creating ecosystems that support communities and biodiversity. We are an active participant in the international Great Green Wall Programme, an ambitious initiative that aims to transform the lives of Sahel communities by planting a vast green belt across Africa. This effort not only helps stop the desert's advance, but also creates economic opportunities, improves food security and stabilizes the local environment. Through our commitment to this program, we work closely with local communities, providing training and resources to plant and care for trees, thus promoting a healthier environment and a more resilient future for current and future generations.

Drive4Aid Discover

Drive4Aid represents the essence of our actions: concretely intervening where the need calls, with missions that bring direct and tangible help. From the hot sands of the Sahara to the vast plains of Ukraine, our vehicles cross borders and difficult terrain to deliver not only essential aid but also ambulances and other specialized vehicles, intended to significantly improve the quality of life of beneficiaries. These expeditions are vital to ensure that communities in emergency situations receive the support they need to deal with health crises, natural disasters and conflicts. The commitment and logistics behind each shipment demonstrate our dedication to making a difference, making the impossible possible and bringing aid where others often don't reach.
