This year, the gala will honor world leaders in environmentalism and an organization dedicated to the profound work of TreePeople.

Irmelin DiCaprio taught her son Leonardo to be respectful of the environment at an early age, and brought him to TreePeople events when he was still in school. Their shared love for protecting the world around them evolved into the launch of the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation. We thank Irmelin for her dedicated passion and commitment to TreePeople and the environment.

Dr. Jonathan Fielding & Karin Fielding are leading supporters of TreePeople and are key stakeholders in our Urban Cooling Collaborative, which provides a how-to template to help the nation’s cities combat climate change.

Actors Conservatory Ensemble (ACE) is a professional theatre group that has volunteered as producers and actors for TreePeople’s Once Upon a Canyon Night summer entertainment series for the past 16 years. In addition to organizing these shows, all ticket proceeds are donated to TreePeople.
