Make a gift

An investment in our urban forest is an investment in the future of our community.

Cleaner air, resilient communities, and economic prosperity are the result of a healthy urban forest. For this reason, our region's long-term health, economic vitality, and quality of life depend on investing in and maximizing the benefits of our urban forest — it depends on our commitment to trees and to those who champion them.

There are many reasons and occasions to make a gift to the Sacramento Tree Foundation, and we are happy to send notification to an individual of your choice so that they know a gift has been made in their honor.

Consider...
  • Honoring someone special like a teacher, a neighbor, or a loved one
  • Making a gift in memory of someone special
  • Marking a special occasion like a birthday or anniversary
  • Honoring a favorite tree in your neighborhood
  • Protecting our urban forest for generations to come
