APPLY FOR A GRANT

Our objective is to help reduce the financial burden of a work-related injury or death by providing grants that will help the individual or family endure their healing or recovery immediately following an accident on the job.

​

Our fund is only able to pay out so many grants per year. As a result, we must focus our attention by limiting applicants based on several factors.

​

At this time, we are focused on applicants who are or were (or related to someone) working full time in the arborist industry.

​

All Applicants will be required to show that they (or the injured party) have, prior to the incident:

  • Attempted to align themselves with a credible tree-focused company committed to safety.
    OR:

  • Individually pursued relevant safety-focused professional development.

 

A substantial part of the grant evaluation will focus on this matter. Examples of factors considered include:

  • Relevant professional certification

  • Educational certificate or degree

  • Working at a company with a documented safety program

  • Working for TCIA accredited company

  • Working for a company with a considerable percentage of Certified Arborists, CTSP, or otherwise formally credentialed arborists.
