Review for Friends of Trees, Portland, OR, USA
Friends of Trees here would be a stellar organization if its accomplishments were a tenth of what they have been. The average non-profit would be proud of enlisting one tenth their number of working volunteers, and any organization that planted one tenth as many trees would be considered a rousing success.
Many organizations have studied the concepts of "flat" and "agile" and tried to implement them, but Friends of Trees here eats and breathes them. For that reason they run circles around everybody else with a fraction of the resources.
From professional study, I know that there is no more important environmental remedy for cities than creating a lush tree canopy --nothing better for urban and global warming, air quality or water quality.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
...every time I walk my dogs, I pass dozens and dozens of trees that probably wouldn't be there without their work.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
...give them a small team of project management types to get more trees on commercial property.
