ROOTS FOR CHANGE

This Giving Tuesday, we celebrated a heartwarming community event. In collaboration with American Forests, sponsored by Weyerhaeuser, and supported by employees from the City of Natchitoches, the fire department, and students from NSU, Grambling and Lakeview High School. We planted 38 trees at Ben Johnson Park. This event symbolizes unity, equity, and a brighter future for residents of Natchitoches. Projects like these provide a platform for people to connect, share stories, and work towards a common goal.

As we reflect on the impact, consider how your donation can further sustain programming, community building, and education. Your support turns a sapling of an idea into a flourishing tree, reaching far beyond the roots of Ben Johnson Park. Thank you for being part of this meaningful journey towards a greener, more interconnected future!
