I am here for Networking

About Me

TreePeople’s mission is to inspire the people of Los Angeles to take personal responsibility for the urban forest -- educating, training and supporting them as they plant and care for trees and improve the neighborhoods in which they live, learn, work and play.

To volunteer, please check out our calendar of events here! www.treepeople.org


My Interests

TreePeople is a nonprofit organization that has been serving the Los Angeles area for over three decades. Simply put, our work is about helping nature heal our cities. We offer sustainable solutions to urban ecosystem problems, focusing on three areas:1. Training and supporting communities to plant and care for trees 2. Educating school children and adults about the environment 3. Working with government agencies on critical water issues
