Support the Foundation During Your Lifetime
If you’d like to make an impact on the environment now, the Arbor Day Foundation can help you arrange one or a combination of planned giving strategies that allow you to contribute to tree planting efforts today and into the future.
Charitable Gift Annuity
A charitable gift annuity allows you to make a donation to the Arbor Day Foundation while receiving an annual payment for the rest of your life. The benefits of the trees you help to plant will then extend beyond your lifetime, cleaning water and air, bringing life to our nation’s forests, making communities greener, and helping to inspire a future generation of tree planters. To receive a proposal and to find out what a charitable gift annuity would look like for you, please contact Chloé Sweet.
Gift of Stock
One additional way to support our environmental efforts is a gift of stock. By transferring appreciated stock as a donation, you can provide generous support to the Foundation's mission and create a lasting legacy. You may also receive significant personal tax savings with a charitable deduction for the contribution without capital-gain tax. Contact Erin Mousel for more information about this option.
Cash Gift
You can make a monetary gift today to fund tree planting and conservation programs that will make a positive impact on the Earth for generations to come. Unrestricted gifts are used to support tree planting efforts across the country and around the world. If you would like your funds put to use in a specific way, please contact us so we can ensure that your wishes are met.
Gift of Land
You can also gift land to the Arbor Day Foundation as a way to preserve your heritage, ensure best conservation practices, and allow for a source of income. By retaining a “lifetime estate,” you can continue to receive annual rental income. You may receive significant tax benefits when you make such a gift.

Donation Today
Whether a few dollars or a few hundred, your donation today can help us work to solve many of the issues facing our planet. Together, we can create change for the world.
Support Directly Through
Donor Advised Funds
A donor advised fund (DAF) is a charitable giving program that makes it easy for donors to dedicate tax-deductible funds to support a nonprofit organization. If you already have a donor advised fund, DAF Direct enables you to recommend grants to the Arbor Day Foundation, directly from your DAF (as long as your DAF’s sponsoring organization is participating).
If you have questions please reach out to James Keim.
