Volunteer
The Tree Foundation is proud to have accomplished so much with volunteer contributions. You can help us continue our success. A qualified volunteer is one who cares about trees, Eugene, and enjoys working with others. Some examples of how you can help are:
- Join us at a tree planting
- Staff our booth at local events
- Help set up for our TreeWalks or presentations
- Support our advocacy programs by researching issues or talking with City staff or other experts
- Monitor the health of our plantings by becoming a Tree Steward
Or if you have special skills to share, such as administrative experience, publication expertise, or grant writing, we’d love to hear from you.
Donate
Your supporting membership in ETF will go a long way toward achieving our goal of preserving and enhancing Eugene’s urban forest. An overwhelming portion of our work is accomplished on a volunteer basis, and so our operations costs are low. Contributions directly benefit one of our three program areas – Planting, Education or Advocacy.
We accept donations by mail.

Treasurer Needed for the ETF Board of Directors
Duties include informing and advising Board of Directors of current fiscal status of the organization and proposing strategies from time to time. Our budget is small ($5000 to $7000 per year) but will grow. Treasurer should attend 10 monthly Board meetings per year and will sometimes meet outside of board meetings with president and/or bookkeeper. The ETF Board is committed, fun, and easy to work with.
We prefer someone with education and/or training in accounting and budgeting. The only true prerequisite for the job is an interest helping to enhance Eugene's wonderful tree-filled landscapes. Expect responsibilities to require three to five hours per month.
