Why We're Here
Educating Georgia's next generation of decision makers is the most important
step we can take to safeguard one of our most valuable renewable
resources: our forests. If the forestry community is to continue
to thrive in the twenty-first century, today's students, who
are tomorrow's voters and policy makers, must understand the
role of forests in producing clean air and water, providing
wildlife habitats, and sustaining economic prosperity.
Since the Georgia Forestry Foundation began its educational
programs in 1989, Georgia's students have consistently demonstrated
improvement in their understanding of forestry principles and
issues. Perhaps more impressive than the measurable gains in
students' knowledge, though, is their high level of engagement
with the material. By tapping children's interest at an early
age, GFF is essentially cultivating informed and engaged citizens,
as well as the next generation of forestry professionals.
The Foundation's work is critical to the future management and
health of Georgia's forests. Please help us continue to protect
Georgia's valuable resources by contributing funds to educate
young people. All gifts to the Georgia Forestry Foundation are
tax-deductible. For more information, please contact the Foundation
office at 800-947-6942 or
info@gfagrow.org.
Or you can donate on-line.
