Apache Corporation Tree Grant Program Announces 2023 Recipients
2023年10月31日 - 12:00AM
Apache Corporation, a subsidiary of APA Corporation (Nasdaq: APA),
today announced the donation of more than 206,000 trees to 61
nonprofit partner organizations through the annual Apache
Corporation Tree Grant Program. Since 2005, over 5 million trees
have been granted to more than 1,000 U.S. nonprofit partners and
government agencies across the country.
“Over the last 18 years, the tree grant program’s partnerships
and support of conservation projects stand as a testament to the
enduring importance of trees for the resilience and growth of our
communities,” said John J. Christmann IV, Apache’s chief executive
officer and president. “Apache believes in the importance of
building and maintaining this legacy. We are committed to
continuing our work as responsible stewards of the environment by
conserving natural habitats, expanding shared green spaces, and
restoring urban forests.”
2023 grant recipients span numerous states and project types.
For example, this year recipients include organizations such as
Houston Wilderness, Hermit’s Peak Watershed Alliance of New Mexico,
and Keep San Angelo Beautiful.
Houston Wilderness is an alliance of business, environmental and
government interests dedicated to protecting diverse ecoregions
along the Gulf Coast.
“Having a partner such as Apache Corporation donate trees
guarantees an impact in the communities where they are planted and
takes on a large portion of the direct costs associated with these
plantings,” said Taylor Britt, Houston Wilderness senior director
of collaborative grants “The long-term impact of these trees is
astounding -- they can remove particulate matter from the air,
absorb water, store carbon, reduce urban heating impacts, decrease
energy costs and provide shade to buildings. We really appreciate
that the Apache Tree Grant Program guarantees the trees are going
to be delivered, which provides an incredible benefit to the
community.”
Hermit’s Peak Watershed Alliance works to protect and restore
the ecological heritage of the Hermit’s Peak region in New
Mexico.
“With the generous donation of trees we’ve been granted through
the Apache Tree Grant Program, we will be holding volunteer and
educational planting days that will help to revegetate burned areas
of Hermit’s Peak, increase native plant biodiversity and help
educate our community members on all of the work we have been
doing,” said Sandy Miller with Hermit’s Peak Alliance. “We are
proud of all the work we’ve been able to accomplish in the past
year and are excited to involve our volunteers and students to
continue this work. We are very grateful to programs such as the
Apache Tree Grant Program that make this work possible.”
In West Texas, Keep San Angelo Beautiful enhances quality of
life by maintaining clean, green and beautiful spaces through art,
science and education in the San Angelo community.
“Keep San Angelo Beautiful is about meeting relevant community
needs, creating relationships through intentional acts of service
and engaging in purposeful teamwork,” said Charlotte Anderson,
executive director of Keep San Angelo Beautiful. “This gives us the
perfect opportunity to come together to foster a love of the
environment by enhancing it with the beauty of West Texas trees.
This year we will have planted a total of 900 trees since 2020
thanks to Apache Corporation. San Angelo is a remarkable community
worth preserving and safeguarding, where humans and nature can
co-exist in harmony and champion the sustainability of our
environment. Thank you for changing the landscape in West
Texas.”

government agencies that the tree grant program supports with a
