Support UC Green

Welcome to our Network of Volunteer Greening Enthusiasts in West/Southwest Philadelphia!

Each year, UC Green volunteers plant and tend hundreds of street trees and enhance public green spaces contributing thousands of hours in service to the community.

We invite you to learn more about our programs and how to care for trees and gardens. We hope you will consider supporting our efforts or participating as a volunteer. Thank you for browsing our site and we hope to see you at one of our events.




AFTERMATH: HELP US RECOVER

UC Green planted hundreds of trees last year in our neighborhood. Last week's storm reminded us how vital trees are to our community. We mourn the loss of some of our favorites like Bartram's elegant old yellowwood and the london plane that graced the Baltimore Ave entrance to Clark Park.

Help us continue our vital work to plant trees that our children and grandchildren will continue to enjoy. Please consider making a gift to UC Green today. Giving is easy via the secure servers at TreeBank.
