2016 ANNUAL REPORT
THE POWER OF PEOPLE & TREES
40YEARS
UP WITH TREES’ MISSION IS TO BEAUTIFY THE GREATER TULSA AREA BY PLANTING TREES AND TO CREATE URBAN FORESTRY AWARENESS THROUGH EDUCATION.
AT UP WITH TREES, OUR MISSION COMES DOWN TO TWO THINGS: TREES AND PEOPLE. PEOPLE AND TREES. TREES ARE OUR BUSINESS, BUT WE COULD NOT DO WHAT WE DO WITHOUT THE PEOPLE. AND THE REASON WE DO WHAT WE DO IS FOR THE PEOPLE. THANKS TO YOU, WE ACCOMPLISHED GREAT THINGS IN 2016.
“WE NEED TO WORK ON CONNECTING BACK TO NATURE. TREES HAVE SO MUCH TO TEACH US.”
– C A R LOS M O R E N O, CO M M U N I T Y M E M B E R A N D T R E E E N T H U S I AST
“TREES ARE IMPORTANT TO US ALL, FOR THEY INFLUENCE THE QUALITY OF OUR LIVES, PROVIDING SHADE, HABITAT FOR WILDLIFE, CLEAN AIR TO BREATHE, AS WELL AS BEAUTIFYING OUR HORIZONS.
