Why We Created Roots of Hope
At Tidd Tree, caring for our community goes far beyond tree work. At Tidd Tree, caring for our community goes beyond tree work. All year long, our team supports Kansas City Metro families who are navigating some of life’s hardest seasons — from serious illness and financial hardship to storm damage or unexpected crisis.
When life gets heavy, we show up.
Roots of Hope is Tidd Tree’s ongoing commitment to supporting Kansas City families during life’s hardest moments.
“Community matters. If we can use our skills and equipment to make someone’s load a little lighter — we will.”
