Ogden — Every time a bell rings, an angel gets its wings. For every drop of rain that falls, a flower grows. OK, maybe neither of these is true, but for every car Dick Hannah Dealerships sells, a tree does get planted.

Through a partnership that began in 2007 with the nonprofit Arbor Day Foundation, 50,000 trees have been planted in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest and in forests managed by the Washington State Department of Natural Resources. Kevin Sander, director of corporate partnerships with the Arbor Day Foundation said, “These trees are helping to clean the air, providing habitat for wildlife and adding beauty to our forests that will last for generations.”
