What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Local tours on Oahu are integrating PayPal to facilitate carbon offset donations at Waimea Valley. Halia Private Tours launched the "10 Trees for 10 Years" initiative, allowing guests to donate directly to Waimea Valley's carbon offset program via PayPal. This initiative supports native tree planting at Waimea Valley, which cares for sprouts in a greenhouse before planting them on the hillsides.
