Donate Today: Help Us Help Trees and People

Trees face many challenges these days. Compacted soils, higher temperatures, and the influx of exotic pests place enormous stress on today’s trees. Their lifespan is short, and when they die, we rarely replace them.

Rural forests are under extreme pressure as well. Forest fragmentation there is the biggest problem. Fueled by the creation of solar farms and new housing developments, tree losses are mounting, and urban and community forests are shrinking.

Our goal is to create healthy urban and community forests, support a vibrant economy, and enrich all Rhode Islanders’ lives. Like RI Energy and RIDEM, many local and national organizations are strong supporters of RITree and its mission.

Sponsorships

Sponsorships are always welcome at RITree. Donations are also welcome at any time. To find out how you can help the organization through sponsorships or a donation, contact RITree by email or telephone: 401-764-5885.

Volunteers

Volunteers

RITree is always looking for volunteers to help with its projects. A few hours a day is all RITree asks from volunteers, who can set up their own schedules. Volunteers contribute to the upkeep of the state’s urban forestry and learn about good tree care.
