Since 2005, the program has partnered with more than 1,000 nonprofit organizations and government agencies across the company’s U.S. operating areas. In 2023, the program surpassed the milestone of donating more than 5 million trees to U.S. partners and expanded internationally, launching a similar program in Scotland, where the company also operates.
“For more than two decades, our Tree Grant Program has reflected our long-term commitment to the communities and environments where we live and work,” said John J. Christmann IV, Apache’s chief executive officer. “Each planting season builds on that legacy, expanding access to green space, supporting restoration efforts and partnering with organizations that are making a meaningful difference on the ground. We’re proud to continue growing this program alongside our partners and investing in projects that will benefit communities for years to come.”
The program is open to U.S.-based nonprofit organizations and government agencies in Alaska, Louisiana and Texas, where Apache Corporation has operations. Grant recipients must request a minimum of 50 one-, three- or five-gallon trees per project or a minimum of 1,000 bareroot seedlings. Additionally, recipients must agree to receive all awarded trees in a single delivery and provide ongoing care and maintenance.
Last season, Apache donated more than 16,000 trees to 14 nonprofit partner organizations, supporting diverse reforestation and conservation efforts. The program continued to expand through partnerships with organizations such as the City of Houston, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, Hermann Park Conservancy, Keep San Angelo Beautiful and Medical Center Health System Foundation in Odessa.
