Did you know?

• Every 1,000 urban trees we plant will save our region more than a million dollars in storm water management, pollution abatement, and energy costs.

• Starbucks will give you their extra, used coffee grounds to add to your garden?

• City trees are fifteen times more capable of reducing carbon in the atmosphere than rural trees.
• Our youth volunteers helped CitySquare by building a compost pile complete with watermelon rinds and corn cobs
• Our youth volunteers serving Texas Trees completed a month's worth of work that the usual staff would have had to do by themselves!

Time flies when serving our community!

Week Two:

Students served at the CitySquare thrift store and the Volunteer Center of North Texas Donated Goods center Monday through Friday mornings. Then, everybody came together for Flashback Friday to reflect and celebrate an incredible week of service by having lots of FUN!
