For students interested in volunteer work:

Volunteer with TreePeople’s community forestry team and help restore our urban forest in Inglewood! Planting trees increases shade, rainwater capture, cleanses water draining to the ocean, bolsters air quality, and mitigates the impact of climate change for Los Angeles County.
