Aegean Forest Foundation is a public benefit foundation which was founded in 1995. Being a volunteer foundation, it was founded with the principle of creating new forest areas, protecting forests and spreading green consciousness among society. Afforestation works are being carried out all over the country within state forests and areas belonging to public institutions. The Foundation aims to leave a more livable world for the next generations by planting 12 million trees in 75 thousand decares. Planted saplings are protected until they grow and become a natural part of the forests.
