A healthy urban tree canopy offers a lot of benefits to the city and its residents. Benefits range from storm water management to cooling urban heat island effect and even improved mental health and increased property values, to name a few.

Considering that Newburgh is the home of landscape architecture, please donate to support a tree initiative for historic Newburgh. In celebration of the newly formed Greater Newburgh Parks Conservancy, I want to increase the tree canopy by 100 trees for a healthier and more beautiful city. We incorporate community outreach and programming to our efforts so to build community stewardship of the newly planted trees.

Every little bit will help me reach my goal. $2, $10, $25, $50, $100... My first FB birthday fundraiser. Let’s make it a success 💫
