Sponsorship

Will you or your company Sponsor an upcoming FUF tree planting? 

COVID-19 UPDATE: 

Friends of the Urban Forest has suspended our community planting activities until it’s safe to resume them, but we’re still working to advance our mission.  

Please join us in creating a resilient, healthier and sustainable future for San Francisco by sponsoring a future tree planting, providing needed funds to continue our operations and continue greening this city for all residents and generations to come.

FUF is currently offering virtual engagement events for your team to stay connected and engaged. 

Possible sponsored virtual event themes: 

• Fireside chat with FUF’s Executive Director & your Founder/CEO or CSR leader 
• LIVE SF Street Tree Tour with FUF’s Education Manager  
• Urban Forestry & Climate Action 
• Bioblitz your Block (learn about the trees around your neighborhood) 
• Sidewalk Landscaping 101
• A History of San Francisco’s Urban Forest (including famous SF natives) 
• Right Tree, Right Place (how we select tree species)

Please contact Aine Kimsey (aine@fuf.net) for more information.
