Our story
G & G Parade of Trees Foundation was founded in 2024 by a passionate mother-daughter team who share a vision: to create meaningful, impactful events that uplift the community and support local nonprofit organizations.
As proud residents of Williston, ND, we know firsthand the support our community gives small businesses and the importance of providing opportunities to grow, connect, and shine. That’s why we specialize in hosting The Parade of Trees event that not only brings people together, but is the perfect way for Williston businesses to show their appreciation for the support that has been given to them!

This is a dream come true for me, combining my two loves: my daughter and my love of teaching!
G&G Parade of Trees is more than just an event; it's a heartfelt initiative started by me and my daughter Kendall. We believe that education should be accessible to all, and through our Parade of Trees, we are able to provide scholarships to students who are facing financial hardships. Our passion for helping others drives us to create this event for those who need it the most.
I spent 28 years teaching high school biology and coaching volleyball and I-know the value of a good education, but I have also seen the struggles some students have in paying for school……..we want to help!

I am so honored and blessed to be partners with my mom in a business that is providing opportunities for all deserving students to attend a post graduate program, whether it’s college or vocational school. I am a graduating senior with plans to attend Utah Tech University in St. George, Utah this fall and major in medical radiography or elementary education.
