Thanks to the diligent efforts of the City of El Cajon, we secured a $834,965 grant from the USDA to bring 500 beautiful, air-purifying, shade-giving trees to neighborhoods throughout our City. This grant comes straight from the Inflation Reduction Act and the USDA Forest Service, in partnership with GreenLatinos, and is designed to make our communities greener, healthier, and more resilient. By securing these funds, the City of El Cajon is improving air quality, lowering temperatures, and enhancing the beauty of our streets - all at no cost to you.
