We help people preserve and restore the environment by planting trees!

PBS Television Series "Leaving Your Legacy"
This hour-long program will bring together two highly rated viewer interests - celebrities and history. It will provide a window into the lives of celebrities such as Clint Eastwood, Val Kilmer and Bette Midler while examining the legacies they are determined to leave. Viewers will be engaged by the insight into unseen aspects of celebrity personality and inspired to leave their own legacy through the motivational example set by their favorite stars. If you would like more information about Tree Stories "Leaving Your Legacy" please contact our Development Team.

Name & Logo Trademark Licensing
We have many partners who choose to demonstrate their support for American Forests by licensing our name, logos and trademarks such as for Global ReLeaf and Wildfire ReLeaf to use on packaging and promotional materials to help market their own products and services. It's a great way to let your clients and customers know that you are environmentally friendly and forward thinking.

Carbon Offsetting
Many companies are looking for ways to help slow global climate change. They recognize that tree planting is an effective element of the climate change solution, and one that carries benefits beyond simple carbon sequestration. Here are some climate change program ideas for forward-thinking companies:

• Use our Corporate Climate Change Calculator to determine your carbon emissions and make the commitment to plant enough trees to offset that amount.
• Make your department or division "carbon neutral" - a great way for corporate environmental offices to lead by example
• Hold carbon neutral conferences by planting trees to cover air travel, deliveries, etc.

Our development personnel are more than happy to answer any of your questions and will work with you to create a partnership that will meet your unique needs while helping to preserve and restore the environment for generations to come.
