HCLTech has selected Alabama-based The Longleaf Alliance as the first U.S. recipient of its inaugural HCLTech Grant Americas.

The Andalusia-based organization focused on a sustainable longleaf pine ecosystem was awarded $250,000 on Earth Day. The same day, HCLTech Grant Americas awarded $500,000 to Brazil-based Argilando and $250,000 to Canada-based No. 9 Contemporary Art and the Environment.

Longleaf Alliance plans to use the grant in its efforts to empower and enable landowners in the restoration of 8 million acres of longleaf pine forests in the Southeast.
