CORPORATE GIVING
At a company-wide level, our giving strategy complements our business strategy. Corporate sponsorships in 2015 include:
American Academy for Park & Recreation Administration – sponsorship of The Honorable Cornelius Amory Pugsley
Medals, which are prestigious awards that recognize outstanding contributions to the promotion and development
of public parks, recreation and conservation in the United States.
American Forests – premier sponsorship of the National Register of Big Trees, which records and documents the
largest trees of each species in the United States.
International Society of Arboriculture – as Distinguished Partners in the ISA's OneTree Program, we are proud
sponsors of the ISA International Conference and International Tree Climbing Championship.
The Nature Conservancy in Ohio – sponsorship of the grand opening of the Nature Conservancy's Grand River
Conservation campus and donated work on the property. Additionally, Davey Tree hosted the chapter's spring
board meeting at our corporate office.
TREE Fund – Media Crown Partner for the TREE Fund, which is dedicated to supporting scientific discovery and
dissemination of new knowledge in the fields of arboriculture and urban forestry.
At a local level, each site is responsible for giving back to their communities. In addition to corporate volunteer
events, Davey Tree employees volunteered nearly 5,500 hours in their communities through partnerships with
schools, nonprofits, cities and other charitable organizations.
