Giving Tree Network

North East Trees is a community based, grassroots, environmental non-profit 501 ( c ) ( 3 ) organization. We are one of the only design build non-profit organizations in Los Angeles. North East Trees' staff includes licensed professional arborists, landscape architects, landscape designers, and environmental scientists that ensure efficient and effective end-to end project management. North East Trees was founded in 1989 by Mr. Scott Wilson, a retired LAUSD high school teacher and licensed Landscape Architect. Mr. Wilson's pledge to plant 5 trees a day for the rest of his life, and his parallel commitment to helping At Risk teenagers find meaningful employment in the green industry, have resulted in a non-profit organization delivering effective training and environmental restoration programs to under served communities in the Greater Los Angeles Area. Our Mission is "To restore nature's services in resource challenged communities, through a collaborative resource development, implementation, and stewardship process."

The Los Angeles Beautification Team (LABT) is a county-wide environmental improvement organization dedicated to enhancing the Greater Los Angeles community through tree planting, resource conservation projects, and improvements to school campuses, neighborhoods, and business districts. Established in 1992, LABT emphasizes the importance of youth involvement in creating greener and cleaner environments, offering job training and mentoring opportunities for young people. LABT provides free trees to Los Angeles residents, both as street trees planted in parkways and as yard trees delivered directly to homes for residents to plant. Through its various initiatives, LABT aims to foster community growth and environmental stewardship while addressing water conservation challenges and encouraging sustainable practices.
