We're $11,580 away from planting the whole Riverside canopy this autumn. Can you help us close the gap?

THE RIVERSIDE CANOPY PROJECT

500 trees before the frost.

Dear {{ contact.firstName|default('friend') }}, last July the pavement on Riverside Avenue reached 52 °C. There isn't a single street tree along its two miles — and it's where 3,000 children walk to school.

This October, 140 volunteers will plant 500 native oaks, maples and lindens along the avenue, and water them through their first three summers. In twenty years, they'll cool the street by up to 6 degrees.

“The kids asked why the park side is always cooler. Now we get to show them.” — Marisol, volunteer since 2021
