Trees play a vital role in our everyday lives. They improve the quality of the air we breathe and the water we drink. The Arbor Day Foundation works with communities, individuals and companies to plant trees where they are needed most around the world.

**Team members plant trees at home**  
Arbor Day Foundation’s Community Canopy Program made it possible for FedEx team members to plant trees in their own backyards and local communities. In lieu of big group tree planting events for Arbor Day, FedEx engaged the Community Canopy team to match interested team members with trees that grow best in their region and deliver them to their door. From New York to Dallas to Idaho, team members, their families and friends planted 500 trees across the US.

**New trees as part of Australia’s recovery from tragic bushfires**  
The Arbor Day Foundation’s Community Tree Recovery (CTR) program helps reforest areas damaged by natural disasters. FedEx has been the program’s national sponsor since its launch in 2012, helping distribute more than 5 million trees around the world. In 2019 and 2020, bushfires burned more than 11 million hectares of land in Australia, killing 33 people and an estimated one billion animals. As climate change creates more extreme natural disasters, more trees continue to be lost, making this work even more urgent. To support Australia in their recovery, and as part of our larger commitment to taking bold action in addressing climate change, FedEx supported the Arbor Day Foundation to plant 2,500 trees in Adelaide, South Australia.
