The NJ Tree Foundation is proud to announce that Lori Braunstein has joined our Board of Trustees! Lori is the founder and President of Sustainable Cherry Hill and the Director of Green Schools at the Delaware Valley Green Building Council. She is a 2010 Environmental Leadership Program Fellow, holds an advanced certificate from the Cloud Institute for Sustainability Education, is a member of the Climate Reality Leadership Corps, and is credentialed as a LEED Green Associate.
Lori has been honored by the Camden County Board of Chosen Freeholders, the American Society of Civil Engineers West Jersey Branch, and the US Environmental Protection Agency District II. Just recently, she was the recipient of the National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO) South Jersey’s Environmental Advocate Award of 2014.
Lori has supported the NJ Tree Foundation’s Camden Urban Airshed Reforestation Program as a volunteer for many years. To celebrate her birthday in 2012, she helped organize a tree planting in Camden, asking friends and family to donate or volunteer in lieu of birthday gifts. This project is among the most amazing, selfless acts any NJ Tree Foundation volunteer has done to benefit the lives of others through trees. You can read more about this project in our 2012-2013 Annual Report. Lori, it is with great enthusiasm and gratitude that we welcome you to our Board of Trustees!
