Testimonials

We are really thankful for giving us an opportunity to start GoMakeADifference one tree=one tourist. Through this project, we learnt that there are challenges and obstacles in any start-up project. The people who succeed in these hard times are those who are not afraid to fail. GoMakeADifference one tree = one tourist made us realize our potential.
