ReLeaf was established in 1990 to plant, promote, and protect canopy trees. ReLeaf helps to reverse the effects of deforestation and global warming, combat climate change, and increase the positive appearance of public and common areas in our region. ReLeaf is a community-based, volunteer and nonprofit organization. ReLeaf has planted over 1,200 trees with assistance from the city, state, East Carolina University, and local garden clubs. With your help ReLeaf can keep planting, promoting, and educating.
Support Us!
ReLeaf plants canopy trees in Greenville and Pitt County, North Carolina. ReLeaf is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization that must have financial support from its community. Your support is necessary to keep us planting trees!
Greenville continues to grow greener by the month, as ReLeaf continues to promote and develop tree planting projects throughout the city. Your contributions and support make all of this possible, and we thank you for your interest in preserving the natural beauty of our county. Planting trees can be a very expensive endeavor, and we are grateful for devoted members like you, that make it possible to continue to stretch our tree borders throughout the city of Greenville.
Consider sponsoring a commemorative tree as a living and enduring tribute to a special person. Your $100 tax-deductible donation provides for the purchase and installation of a tree in ReLeaf's annual planting program. Names of those honored or memorialized are displayed on a plaque in the Washington Street Lobby of the Municipal Building at 201 West Fifth Street.
