RE-LEAF

"Friendship is a sheltering tree."      ~        Samuel Taylor Coleridge c. 1830

We can see from historic streetscapes that trees add a majesty and grace to the outstanding architecture for which New Bedford is known.  We all recognize the intrinsic value of 100-year-old elms and oaks and how they improve the quality of our lives.  There is no greater expression of  hope for the future than the planting of a tree.

You will become a friend to future generations in the city with the gift of a tree.  The cost of a tree is $225.  Please print out and return the reply form below with your tax-deductible contribution, which can be made "in honor" or "in memory" of a friend or family member.  All donations will be recorded in a permanent register which will be on display in the New Bedford Whaling National Historical Park Visitor Center.
