What We Are. . .

The Team Earth environmental program works through local schools, in partnership with local corporate sponsors, to involve youth in environmental issues on three levels:

1. Care for the environment and beautification of the community through monthly service projects.

2. Education and training about waste production, management and recycling as a preferred means of disposal through business mentoring.

3. Leadership development of young people through the principles of teamwork and individual responsibility.

What We Do. . .

Team Earth Clubs meet monthly in schools to plan environmentally focused initiatives in their individual communities. A representative from a local Team Earth Club corporate sponsor may also attend to serve as a mentor, providing insight and networking resources for the student members. All local Team Earth Clubs come together for a state-wide gathering to take part in an Earth Day Celebration on April 22nd. Held annually at a centrally located park or nature preserve, our Earth Day Celebrations serve as an opportunity for these environmentally conscious students to share in fellowship and learn from one another about what each Club has accomplished over the previous year.
