ABOUT US

Our non-profit organization is deeply committed to the protection, preservation, and prevention of tree loss, focusing on mitigating the impacts of disease and infestations that threaten forests and urban green spaces. Recognizing the crucial role trees play in combating climate change and supporting biodiversity, we also prioritize planting initiatives aimed at offsetting the negative environmental effects caused by deforestation and industrial activities. By restoring and enhancing tree coverage, we strive to create a healthier, more resilient planet for generations to come.

At the heart of our mission is the belief that meaningful environmental change starts with community action. Through our People, Planting, and Preservation Program (PPPP), we extend essential support to underserved communities by providing low-cost or income-based tree services to low-income families, veterans, and individuals with disabilities. Our services aim to ensure that everyone, regardless of their financial situation, has access to the benefits of healthy trees and green spaces.

In addition to our core initiatives, we respond to urgent environmental challenges by offering emergency relief services after hurricanes, implementing wildfire prevention strategies, and managing tree diseases to maintain the health and safety of local ecosystems. Our tree-planting campaigns, designed to restore damaged landscapes and promote urban forestry, are carried out with a focus on long-term sustainability and community engagement.

Through education, action, and collaboration, we aim to empower individuals and communities to become active participants in environmental conservation. Every tree we protect and every sapling we plant contributes to a broader vision of a greener, more equitable future. Together, we can build a legacy of environmental stewardship that will benefit not only our current generation but countless generations to come.

 
 

QC Arbor Needs: Mission and Vision

Disaster Response and Relief Services

QC Arbor Needs collaborates with FEMA, the Red Cross, the Department of Agriculture, and the Department of Defense to provide disaster response and relief services to affected areas. Our goal is to minimize the impact of natural disasters on communities by offering immediate assistance, including temporary housing, crisis counseling, legal services, and disaster case management. We also work with local governments and private non-profits to clear debris and rebuild public infrastructure

Planting Initiatives

Our planting initiatives focus on reforestation and urban greening to combat climate change and improve community well-being. We partner with volunteers, sponsors, and other non-profit organizations to plant trees in areas that need them the most. These initiatives not only provide environmental benefits but also create green spaces that enhance the quality of life for residents.

Tree Care for Lower-Income Communities​

QC Arbor Needs provides essential tree care services to lower-income communities and individuals with disabilities who cannot afford professional tree care. Our experienced arborists respond swiftly to invasive infestations and infectious diseases, preventing the spread of pests and diseases that can devastate urban and forest trees. By offering these services, we help reduce tree loss, lower energy consumption, and improve air and water quality.

Benefits of Tree Care

Data Collection and Research

QC Arbor Needs is committed to data collection, research, and monitoring to track the spread of invasive species and diseases. By understanding the patterns and impacts of these threats, we can develop effective strategies to prevent the near extinction of tree species, similar to our efforts with Dutch Elm Disease and the Emerald Ash Borer.

Financial Impact

Neglecting tree care in lower-income areas can result in significant financial losses. Without proper care, invasive infestations and diseases can spread rapidly, leading to higher costs for tree removal, property damage, and increased insurance claims. Investing in tree care now can save communities millions of dollars in the long run.

Conclusion

QC Arbor Needs is dedicated to creating a healthier, safer, and more sustainable environment for all. Through our disaster response, planting initiatives, and tree care services, we strive to make a positive impact on communities and the environment. Join us in our mission to protect and preserve our natural resources for future generations.
