Community Gratitude Fund
In 2025 we’re expressing our gratitude for our community by providing 10 worthy folks with up to $2,500 in free tree care!
We're accepting nominations year-round in 2025 by sending an email to gratitude@thetreeist.com.
Who It's For:
- We’re looking for folks in the community who deserve recognition and are known for their kindness, dedication & ability to inspire.
- A nominee could be someone you see picking up litter, or a friend or neighbor doing something right.
- We’d also consider helping a well-known community area that could use some tree-love.
- We'll select recipients from nominees made by anyone in our Chapel Hill community - and places nearby - including Carrboro, Durham, Mebane & Hillsborough.
How It Works:
- Folks are chosen based on the few short paragraphs & information you email to gratitude@thetreeist.com.
- Drop us a note about some admirable person in the community to whom we might be of service.
- Recipients will be chosen and contacted throughout 2025 and the tree work will be scheduled & completed during Q4 of 2025.
Each of the 10 qty. 2025 Community Gratitude Fund Recipients will receive:
- A free initial consultation worth $150.
- During that consultation we look for tree work worth up to $2500 that will benefit the property / property owners.
- This tree work may include tree pruning, hazard mitigation, tree removals, tree health care, stump grinding, tree planting - or any combination.
