Our organization navigates all the technical issues behind getting the thousands of saplings across the nation! We manage our website, answer your questions through EZ Texting, provide materials to help you plan events, find the tree vendors that fit your environment, and a lot more! We also grant funds to underserved communities through our Environmental Equity Committee with your donations.

Tree-Person of the Month

Our Tree-Person for the month of May is Diana Sciandra from GreenWood Charter School! She is an overwhelming force for good within her school and community. Diana facilitated communications with Tree-Plenish and helped her students plan a celebratory day to distribute saplings to their community. They have been recognized by their local newspaper and EL Education, and it is all due to her hard work! In addition to her dedication to Tree-Plenish Diana gets the students and teachers outside every day, planting gardens, celebrating nature, and learning how to be conservationists.

You can nominate someone from your school to be the Tree-Person of the Month with this link!
