“It’s because of them, who’ve given me their trust, who allow me to work with them, that allows me to stand here today.”

Congratulations to Ebonie Alexander, executive director of the Black Family Land Trust, who was awarded the Kingsbury Browne Conservation Leadership Award.

"If you want to get into communities and affect change, you have to meet people where they are. You have to drop all the letters behind your name and see other perspectives.

Be okay yielding yourself to the other.
It doesn’t happen overnight."

“You can change a lot of things about your community and your life with trees, including how your hospitals and classrooms are designed.

Because with healthy trees comes healthy lives.”

1 planet. 1 day. 1 retweet. That’s all it takes to put trees in the ground. When you retweet THIS tweet, you are helping @KCCorp and the Arbor Day Foundation's goal of planting 150,000 trees. You don't need a shovel to plant trees today. #ArborDay
