Build Better Places Fund
Great places should be accessible to everyone.
A portion of every Sitemade subscription goes directly to funding parks, urban tree planting, and playgrounds in underserved communities, because we believe the work of building better places shouldn’t stop at the project boundary.
How it works
Sitemade gives back through every subscription.
The Build Better Places Fund is Sitemade’s nonprofit arm. Each year, a portion of our subscription revenue is allocated to grant-making focused on three areas: urban green infrastructure, community playground improvements, and street tree programs in under-resourced neighborhoods.
We partner with landscape architects, nonprofits, and municipal agencies to identify and fund projects where thoughtful design and high-quality site products can make the biggest difference, and where they’d otherwise never reach.
Where the fund goes
Three focus areas
Urban tree planting
Street trees reduce heat, improve air quality, and make neighborhoods more livable. We fund tree planting programs in communities where the urban tree canopy has the furthest to grow.
Parks & green space
Pocket parks and community green spaces are often the first infrastructure to be deferred. We support projects that bring designed, maintained green space to neighborhoods that need it most.
Playgrounds
Well-designed play environments support child development, community connection, and neighborhood pride. We fund playground improvements where quality site furnishings and safe play equipment remain out of reach.
Every subscription helps fund a better place.
When you use Sitemade to build great projects, you’re also helping build better places for communities that need them.
