The corporations were recently inducted into the nonprofit’s Evergreen Alliance

LINCOLN, Neb.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Arbor Day Foundation celebrates its newest cohort of the Evergreen Alliance, a collective of corporate leaders committed to planting trees in cities and forests to create positive change.

“We are bold enough to believe in better days ahead, because our collaborators are committed to helping make them a reality. This group of forward-thinking leaders has demonstrated a willingness to go above and beyond to shape a better future for us all,” said Dan Lambe, chief executive of the Arbor Day Foundation. “We’ve seen the Evergreen Alliance help drive meaningful impact in big ways, and we’re eager to see our newest members embody that same ambition.”

The Evergreen Alliance’s newly inducted members include Enterprise Mobility, Publix, Truist, PwC, Clayton, Niagara Bottling, and KPMG. There are also several standing members that have committed to continuing their impact through the Evergreen Alliance, including FedEx, Georgia-Pacific, HP, Inc., International Paper, L’Oreal, Marriott International, P&G, Salesforce, and Verizon.

The Evergreen Alliance is a select group of Arbor Day Foundation collaborators committed to advancing trees and forests as natural solutions for corporate sustainability and citizenship goals. Members of the Evergreen Alliance contribute to high-impact tree planting projects and help drive innovation, discovery, and action alongside other leading organizations.

Corporations have an outsized ability to address some of the biggest challenges facing the planet by making bold investments in reforestation, community engagement, and the voluntary carbon market. Polling data from the Arbor Day Foundation’s Canopy Report indicates there’s a strong desire from Americans to see companies take a leading role in the fight against climate change.
