Youth Employment Skills Days Kick off the Summer!
In April, 43 young people attended Tree Trust's YES-Day employment skills workshops. YES-Day provided participants with workplace readiness skills to help them prepare for their summer jobs. 
Meet Tiffany, Tree Trust Alumni
Tiffany was a participant in Tree Trust's JobPrep programs in 2015 and 2016. Tiffany built her workplace skills over nearly a year in our programs, and leveraged her experience into a national service position. 

After Tree Trust, Tiffany found herself on a path to Houston, to help recovery efforts after Hurricane Harvey.

Unless Someone Like You Cares A Whole Awful Lot...
Dr. Seuss' classic children's book, The Lorax, is one of our staff's favorite books, and we were so excited to learn that The Lorax is coming to the stage at the Children's Theatre Company! 

The Children's Theatre Company isn't just performing the show; they're also supporting the message in our community! CTC is donating to our Green Futures tree planting fund, and is providing all of our volunteers this spring a 20% discount to see The Lorax!

Sign up to volunteer today!
