Volunteer


Tree plantings provide an opportunity for community involvement and empowerment that  improves the quality of life in our neighborhoods. All cultures and ages have an important role to play at a tree planting event. If you are interested in planning a tree planting in your community, email jessica@treesforhouston.org.

The Trees For Houston volunteer program provides Houstonians an opportunity to help with tree planting projects, community outreach events and educate the community on how to continually replenish our green urban canopy.

We need volunteers like you to help us plant trees, work community outreach events and educate our community about trees. Please click here to set up your volunteer profile, and make sure you scroll down when creating your profile and check the VOLUNTEER box. We will then update you via email with all upcoming volunteer opportunities. With your help, we are able to reach out to as many communities, organizations and individuals as possible. The need for green extends far beyond the city proper, so if you don't have a Houston address, don't let that stop you from volunteering! We plant all throughout the greater Houston region.

Volunteer roles at Trees For Houston are as follows:

Tree Planting Volunteer,  Volunteer Community Outreach Leader and Volunteer Education Leader. Please email Jessica@treesforhouston.org if you are interested in volunteering with Trees For Houston.
