Marvin Baker – Purpose-Led Entrepreneur

Marvin Baker believes privilege brings responsibility. Since 2009 he has devoted his career to building programmes that unlock opportunity for people who were not born with the advantages he enjoyed.

His standout achievement to date is funding 4.6 million trees across 17 developing-world countries, creating food security and income for thousands who will never know his name.

The Hospitality Programme that Grew Forests

In 2012 Marvin launched a zero-cost hospitality programme that invited diners to add a small, optional contribution to their bill—enough to plant a fruit tree for a family overseas.

"An outstanding initiative which successfully merges the luxury of eating out with the joy of knowing we are simultaneously giving something back to nourish our planet."

Awards & Recognition

• Green Apple Environmental Awards — presented at the UK Houses of Parliament to Marvin, Michelin-starred partners, and celebrity chefs James Martin and Marco Pierre White.
• Lightspeed (NYSE : LSPD) integrated the programme into its £3 billion hospitality platform; Founder Dax Dasilva publicly called Marvin "a change-maker".
• Achieved six-figure monthly recurring revenue before stepping down as CEO of GiftTrees in 2022 and exiting in October 2024 to pursue new frontiers in AI.

Share The Truth – Empowering Communities 24/7

Access to reliable information is a basic right, not a luxury. While AI has democratised content creation, social feeds remain cluttered with misinformation. Share The Truth is Marvin's latest movement: an AI-powered platform that puts communities first, ensuring they can reach verified facts any time, day or night. The value flows to the audience—citizens, patients, students.

How It Works

• Always-on accuracy – real-time video fact-checking 24/7.
• Community-centred model – content is free at the point of use.
• Inclusive access – optimised for low-bandwidth connections and assistive technologies so underserved groups are never excluded.

"Share The Truth flips the influencer model on its head: the community is the customer, and accuracy is the product."

Mission

• Equip every community with round-the-clock access to verified knowledge.
• Outpace misinformation by making truth the fastest, easiest content to find.
• Rebuild trust in local experts and institutions through transparent, open-source validation.
