Corporate Sponsorship

Turn your carbon commitments into roots in the ground.

RootFund connects corporations with verified urban forestry projects in the southeastern US. Fund tree planting, earn C/O Meter certificates, and give your stakeholders something real to celebrate.

Every dollar you fund goes directly to on-the-ground tree planting. RootFund projects are verified through the C/O Meter registry — the same standard used by the City Forest Credits program — so your carbon offsets are audit-ready and investor-grade.

How It Works

From funding to forest — in four steps.

1

Browse & Select

Explore our project catalog. Filter by city, project type, or carbon volume to find the right fit for your organization's goals.

2

Fund the Project

Contribute directly to the project through our secure funding portal. Your funds are held until project milestones are verified.

3

C/O Meter Verification

Each project is registered with the C/O Meter carbon tracking system. Trees are monitored, carbon impact is estimated, and certificates are issued.

4

Receive & Report

Get your official carbon offset certificate with serial number and vintage year. Use it in your ESG reporting, investor decks, or sustainability page.

Brand Visibility

Placement on the funded project's sponsor roll, optional logo on the project detail page, and presence in the quarterly newsletter and RootFund annual impact report. For marketing and brand teams.

Impact Reporting

Quarterly tree-survival and carbon-sequestration updates, a downloadable CSV of plant dates and survival rates, and certificate serial numbers with vintage years tied to your contribution. For sustainability and ESG teams.

Tax Treatment

RootFund contributions are donations; sponsors receive documentation supporting treatment as charitable contributions where applicable, plus carbon-credit retirement documentation for voluntary carbon market claims. For finance and legal.
