TD Bank and Arbor Day Foundation Invites Applications for Urban Forestry Projects

TD Bank and the Arbor Day Foundation are accepting applications to TD Green Streets, a grant program that will offer ten grants of $20,000 each in support of innovative urban forestry initiatives in low- to moderate-income neighborhoods.

Funding will support the purchase of trees, tree planting and maintenance, and educational activities. Up to 50 percent of the proposed funding can be used to purchase new trees.

To be eligible for a TD Green Streets grant, qualified municipalities must be a current Arbor Day Foundation Tree City USA-designated community within TD Bank’s U.S. footprint. In addition, new trees must be planted in neighborhoods identified as low- to moderate-income. Municipalities are encouraged to apply in partnership with community partners such as nonprofit organizations, schools, businesses, et cetera.

Complete program information, a list of eligible communities, and the online application are available at the TD Green Streets website.

DEADLINE: NOVEMBER 20, 2015
