The Cedar Tree Foundation is a small family fund created by the late pediatrician and entrepreneur, Dr. David H. Smith. Dr. Smith believed in the power of individuals and organizations to make significant changes in our world, and we reflect that belief in our grantmaking.
Granting Areas
The Cedar Tree Foundation's grant making focuses
on the following areas of concern:

conservation biology, in partnership with the Society for Conservation Biology. www.smithfellows.org
