Giant announces Healing the Planet grant program

The Giant Co., in partnership with Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful, announced the return of the Healing the Planet Grant Program.

The Healing the Planet Grant Program, funded by The Giant Co. and known locally as Giant and Martin’s, aims to invest in tree plantings across the company’s operating areas in Pennsylvania. A total of $112,000 in funding will be awarded to tax-exempt organizations for tree planting projects this year. Eligible projects must be shovel-ready and include tree planting and direct costs relating to tree planting.

The 2025 Healing the Planet grant program is accepting online applications for grants of up to $4,000 now through July 1 via the Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful website. Eligible expenses include but are not limited to trees native to Pennsylvania, equipment, tree signage, tools and supplies. Preference will be given to applications that aim to plant the highest number of trees. Awardees will be announced in late July.

This is the fifth year The Giant Co. has partnered with Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful to offer Healing the Planet grants. In the past four years, more than $1.2 million has been awarded to 140 recipients for projects which connected people and families to green spaces; improved or helped to protect local waterways and water resources; supported projects that addressed food waste prevention, reduction and recovery; and promoted tree planting initiatives.
