Philanthropic Ventures Foundation (PVF) is a 501(c)(3) public charity dedicated to supporting outstanding charitable work, customizing giving programs for donors, initiating new dimensions in grant-making and acting as the depository for charitable projects. PVF serves as the fiscal depository for the Forest & Tree Fund.
Forest & Tree is a charitable initiative that provides young people in grades Tk-12 with outdoor learning experiences away from the four walls of a traditional classroom in order to develop a stronger sense of self, community and connection with the natural world. In collaboration with educators and students, Forest & Tree works to create programming personalized to each school to lead and develop outdoor learning curriculum and experiences to help expand a young person's sense of what is possible.
