GreenCare For Troops

Investing in Healthy Green Spaces for Military Families

GreenCare for Troops connects military families in need with professional lawn, landscape and snow removal volunteers so families can enjoy safe, healthy outdoor spaces while a loved one serves.

“SnowCare for Troops helped me every time it snowed when I was pregnant and taking care of a toddler in Connecticut. They even shoveled my sidewalk. I love you guys!”

My girlfriend and I both are deploying. Thank you for the service you provide for us service members. This is my second deployment and second time using this service. Amazing program and we are extremely appreciative of the support.

I honestly don’t know how I could have cleaned up the leaves in our yard. My husband takes a lot of pride in our yard and with my recent back injury I was so worried the yard would be ruined. Our volunteer took such a weight off our shoulders. Thank you for this amazing program!

Why Green Spaces Matter for Military Families?

A place to reset

A safe yard gives families space to relax, play, and recharge especially during stressful seasons of life.
Cooling and comfort

Healthy green spaces can help cool your home and mitigate warm temperatures in your community.
Cleaner air, healthier neighborhoods

Thriving grass, plants, and trees support cleaner air and carbon sequestration, helping green spaces function as “the lungs of the community.”
Collective impact

One person can’t transform a neighborhood alone. Project EverGreen’s coalition of volunteers helps green spaces thrive one household at a time.

Every service visit supports a healthier outdoor environment – benefiting families today and communities for the long term.
