Corporate and small business gifts bolster our ability to increase and diversify our native urban forest.  Contributions are recognized on our website, Facebook, Instagram and local papers.

  • Fuel our efforts to reforest the McLean area with a contribution for general support of MTF or target your gift to specific activities:  school programs, Neighborhood Tree Program, Tree Champions, park plantings, or underwrite an educational event.

  • Recognize the value of your employee’s gift to MTF by matching their gift.

  • Honor an employee, friend, business or event by participating in our Tree Sponsorship program.

  • Make a difference with an in-kind contribution.  Give a gift of equipment, supplies, or services.
