The Koreatown Youth and Community Center's (KYCC) Environmental Services unit offers opportunities for groups to host private tree planting events. These events are great ways for groups to bond, get some fresh air and make a visible (and long-lasting) impact on our community in just a few hours.

KYCC is one of the largest tree planting organization in the city of Los Angeles and we plant over 1,000 trees every year with the support of volunteers and groups.

By sponsoring a private event KYCC staff will work around your schedule to set the date, time and location (must be within our tree planting borders) to meet your needs. We have hosted many groups in the past, including Bank of America, Alo Yoga, Hilton Hotels & Resorts, Amazon, TikTok and many more.

GARSEF is a competition for students from 30 school districts as well as private, charter and home schools in 14 counties who are advancing from their local schools.

Junior (middle school) Division and Senior (high school) Division students submit their projects in one of 18 scientific categories, covering both Life and Physical Sciences as well as Math and Engineering. Judging is competitive and the top two winners in each category from both divisions advance to the state fair at Texas A&M in College Station. The overall top six projects in the Senior Division, called "Best of Fair", advance directly to the international competition.
Because judging is competitive, we need subject matter experts to evaluate the projects. 7-8 projects are assigned to each group of judges (typically consisting of 3-5 people). After a group has interviewed their assigned students, team members discuss the merit of each project and jointly determine the ranking. Seniors are judged in the morning, Juniors in the afternoon. It is a 2-4 hour commitment, depending on the amount of students in each category. (The Junior Division Chemistry, Engineering, and Physics categories tend to be rather large, for example, and have to be done in two rounds.) We offer orientation sessions in the weeks leading up to the fair.
Judging for next year's Junior/Senior fair will take place on Thursday, Feb 22, 2024, at the Palmer Event Center. Students will register and set up their projects on Wednesday, Feb 21, and projects will be available for previewing that night without students present. Links to the abstracts, research plans and electronic project boards will be made available the week-end prior to the fair.
Elementary students are judged on Saturday, Feb 24, 2024; judging is not competitive and every project receives either a 1st, 2nd or 3rd place ribbon.
Judges Qualifications:
Junior Division: Undergraduate (3rd year and above) and graduate students, as well as professionals with either a degree or 3 years of experience in the applicable science category.
Senior Division: Graduate students, professionals with either a degree or 5 years of experience in the applicable science category.
Elementary Division: Adults with a good general education and the ability to talk to young children.
