    Join Us for the 10th Annual Hike for Haiti!

    Tree Angels for Haiti is excited to invite you to be part of this special milestone event as we come together for a meaningful day of nature, community, and impact along the beautiful Billy Goat Trail.

    More than just a hike, this is an opportunity to connect with passionate individuals who care about our planet and want to help create positive environmental change in Haiti — where sustainable support is urgently needed. Whether you love the outdoors, want to give back, meet inspiring people, or simply enjoy a day surrounded by nature, this event is for you!

We welcome all ages and hope this hike encourages more people to step outside, reconnect with nature, and make a difference together.

    Please sign up to volunteer by Friday, June 6, 2026.
