Distributions from both these funds are available for distribution annually to:
- Support environmental or community initiatives that are aligned to PF Olsen and the forestry sector. These could be national or local projects, or initiatives led by PF Olsen.
- Support our future foresters into the industry through education (e.g. through scholarships for training / leadership / course related equipment).
