   This GivingTuesday, please join me in raising money for Speak for the Trees, my favorite new nonprofit in Boston. They have a wonderful, powerful, and REALLY important mission: to make Boston a healthier and more livable city for all residents by growing and improving the city’s tree canopy. With climate change promising more rain, hotter summers, and dirtier air, trees are vital; they bring people together, make a real difference in combating climate change on the local level, and build a healthier and more livable city. In 2021 SFTT has the goal of doubling its annual giving and having 200 people donate. I hope you can join me in supporting this great cause.

   Every $100 gifts a tree and every donation brings SFTT one step closer to their goal! Please join me in supporting their work.

6. The final step will offer you a preselected cover photo to represent your campaign, and then you’ll finish up by pressing “Create.” That’s it! Thanks for helping us fill the city of Boston with more trees!
