Support Trees for Honolulu’s Future
Growing up in Honolulu gave me a great appreciation for the natural environment, especially trees…and the beach! It was super-easy to set-up a monthly donation through PayPal. Doing so allows me to give back each month and make a difference. Mahalo!

In 2022, your donations will support the following:
Trees for Kaimuki – installation of a rain garden demonstration project (corner of 11th & Harding Avenues), planting of trees throughout the district, using innovate ways to engage with community, increase equity and access to parks in the area.
Addressing heat islands – an EPA grant to come up with solutions engaging youth as “Student Scientists” to come up with solutions for their schools, parks, and home. (Makalapa area of O’ahu; this involves Councilmember Cordero and several collaborating community partners).
Financial and technical support of a Honolulu Theatre for Youth show featuring trees.
Advocacy for trees protection and the increase of the urban tree canopy – actions include a comprehensive tree ordinance, updating where Honolulu stands (last data was from 2013) in its goal of achieving 35% tree canopy coverage in urban areas by 2035 (not ready for public announcement, but I’ve been nominated to serve on the Mayor’s Arborist Advisory Committee, when that does happen, we can make some splash around that).
6th Annual “WeTrees” Keiki Art Contest.
Support and facilitate funding of other groups’ activities (e.g. seeking funding for Sand Island State Recreation Park, “events” tab on website publicizes other organizations activities, etc.).
Continue our work as a bridge-building organization that develops relationships and collaboration among policymakers, tree experts, arborists, environmentalists, educators, community activists, architects, facility managers, developers, planners, and leaders in academia, science, business, the military, and in health and wellness, as well as individuals interested in neighborhood or community improvement.
