Urban Releaf

http://www.urbanreleaf.org/

The Urban Releaf Organization is a non-profit organization devoted to planting trees and gardens in generally low to middle class neighborhoods and other nearby areas to increase awareness of the environment. Trees are planted along streets and around houses or neighborhoods that have little reminders of ecology around them. One of their main focuses is on planting these trees to educate the youth in not only respecting the environment but also to inspire them to become educated. The organization hopes that by bringing this nature around children will help improve the actual communities and also aid in the environmental development of these communities.
