Global electronics component distributor Mouser Electronics Inc. is pleased to announce that the fundraising goals have been met to donate to One Tree Planted for the purpose of planting 100,000 trees across Europe and 50,000 trees across the United States. In Europe, the trees are being planted across Denmark, Ireland, Portugal, Netherlands, Scotland, Germany, and Spain. In the United States, One Tree Planted will focus on urban planting and forest fire recovery projects in several states. Mouser’s valued manufacturer partner, Analog Devices, co-sponsored the program.
The initiative, which began in February 2023, pledged that with the purchase of each Mouser order including at least one line of Analog Devices products, Mouser and Analog Devices would donate funds to One Tree Planted to plant trees across the two regions. The program began in Europe initially, and after much success, it was extended to the United States in July.
“We are very excited to have met our 2023 fundraising goals, with our customer support, to contribute to this meaningful environmental program,” said Marie-Pierre Ducharme, Vice President EMEA Supplier Marketing & Business Development at Mouser Electronics. “We thank the many European and American customers who supported this worthwhile initiative.”
“With Mouser Electronics’ commitment to giving back to the environment by planting trees, we are restoring forests, creating habitat for biodiversity, and making a positive social impact in projects across Europe and the United States,” said Louis Lagoutte, Regional Fundraising Director for Europe at One Tree Planted.
Trees provide substantial benefits to the environment and our communities. One Tree Planted is an environmental nonprofit focused on global reforestation. As an official partner of the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, they have planted over 100 million trees in more than 80 countries across the globe since 2014. In 2022 alone, they planted over 52 million trees – more than doubling their 2021 impact. They work to re-establish woodland, improve water and soil quality, and restore habitat for biodiversity in areas that have been degraded or deforested.
