American Forests, the oldest national nonprofit conservation organization in the United States, is thrilled to announce a significant funding milestone, successfully raising $25 million to further advance its mission of restoring threatened forest ecosystems. Founded in 1875, American Forests has been at the forefront of conservation efforts across the nation, leading impactful initiatives that aim to inspire people to value and protect both urban and wildland forests. Over the past 25 years, the organization has planted nearly 50 million trees through more than 1,000 high-impact restoration projects, effectively rejuvenating wildlife habitats, protecting vital watersheds, and sequestering millions of tons of greenhouse gases.
This new infusion of capital will bolster American Forests' ongoing projects, empower them to plant even more trees, and expand their influential urban tree canopy programs, which have transformed communities by enhancing green spaces and improving air quality in densely populated areas. With these funds, the organization is poised to launch innovative campaigns that address climate change and promote biodiversity, ensuring a sustainable future for forests and urban landscapes alike. As one of the leading voices in advocating for responsible forest management, American Forests remains committed to its vision of a world where forests thrive, communities flourish, and everyone understands the value of trees. The support from donors and partners will pave the way for even greater impacts across the country. To learn more about American Forests and their exciting initiatives, visit www.americanforests.org.
