OPENING DOORS TO A GREENER TOMORROW.

Crescent Communities is proud to partner with nonprofits across the country to expand the urban tree canopy.

BECAUSE HOPE FOR A GREENER FUTURE STARTS AT HOME.

TREES ARE THE LIFEBLOOD OF OUR COMMUNITIES,

providing shade, oxygen, protection from wind and noise, food and shelter for wildlife, filtering stormwater, reducing energy consumption, increasing home values and offsetting carbon emissions.

OUR PARTNERS

TreesCharlotte is a nonprofit dedicated to expanding Charlotte’s tree canopy with the goal of attaining 50% tree canopy by 2050.

Crescent Communities is actively building relationships with organizations across the country to support our tree canopy. More partners are coming soon!

Shading & evaporative cooling from trees can cut air conditioning costs 20-50%.

Tree-lined streets increase property values up to 25%.

Trees provide food & shelter for a diverse array of wildlife.

One large tree provides a day's supply of oxygen for 4 people.

There are about 200 million spaces along our city streets where trees could be planted, which would absorb 33 million tons of carbon dioxide every year and save $4 billion in energy costs.
