On March 26, 2024, we made history with the City of Phoenix and our incredible partners, the Arizona Sustainability Alliance and V+P Nurseries, as we planted 80 trees at Morris K. Udall Middle School and Alta E. Butler Elementary School. This landmark event marks the first school tree planting funded by the American Rescue Plan Act through the Canopy for Kids Program in Arizona.

A huge thank you to our volunteers and community for helping us turn this dream into reality. Together, we're not just planting trees but growing a greener, healthier future for our students and community.

Let's make our schools a shade better, one tree at a time.
