Help Heal the Angeles Forest this Holiday Season
Dedicate a Tree for the Holidays
TreePeople announces the return of its popular Holiday Tree Dedication program.
By Westside Today Staff | November 18, 2010
Through TreePeople's Tree Dedication program, holiday shoppers can give a gift to heal the fire-damaged Angeles National Forest. For each $25 tax-deductible donation, a tree will be dedicated in honor of those on holiday gift lists, including family, friends, co-workers and clients.
A beautiful, personalized holiday card will be sent to the recipient announcing the gift. For a $100 contribution, TreePeople will send an inscribed certificate to the recipient, announcing that a grove of five trees has been dedicated. Certificates may be framed with a handsome recycled wood frame for an additional $30.
With financial support from Holiday Tree Dedications, the nonprofit TreePeople works with land management agencies to restore woodlands burned in the 2009 Station Fire. Thousands of trees are planted each year through this impactful program.
A tree is always the right size, never goes out of style, doesn’t need wrapping, spares shoppers a trip to the mall and curbs the greenhouse effect. According to the International Society of Arboriculture, a single mature tree can absorb the amount of carbon produced by a car driven 26,000 miles.
One ‘click’ handles all your shopping needs. To dedicate a tree online visit

TreePeople’s mission is to inspire, engage and support people to take personal responsibility for the urban environment, making it safe, healthy, fun and sustainable and to share the results as a model for the world. For more information, visit
