Our Holiday Donation: Planting Trees in American Forests

In the spirit of giving and growing a healthier world, we just made a holiday donation to American Forests in honor of our clients, friends and family this year.

Founded in 1875, American Forests is the nation’s oldest nonprofit conservation organization. Protecting and restoring forests globally and raising awareness of how important these ecosystems are to all forms of life on the planet, Global ReLeaf is their tree planting program to restore damaged forest ecosystems in sites across the country and around the world.

Our donation will help cover the costs of planting up to 500 trees that will help provide cleaner air and water, protection from sun and storms, and offer habitats for endangered species. These trees will help save energy, money, and tax dollars, and will reduce our “carbon debt.” Trees enrich our lives by simply being there. Here are Ten Reasons to Plant Trees that may surprise you.

Happy Holidays to all of you. May your 2011 be healthy, happy, and evergreen!
