UN Millenium Developement Goals
The Mission: Plant 100 Million Trees Around the World
Who: Everyone
Where: Anywhere you want
How To Participate:
- Determine how many trees you can plant and nurturebetween Oct. 2008 and June 2009
- You may work by yourself with your family, friends, company, school, NGO or any other group of your choice and you can do this anywhere.
- Make a Pledge on or before Oct.12, 2008.
- Email Ina Andersen or Denise Celdran or text Ina at 0927-6758494 before October 10, 2008 the number of trees you will pledge to plant/nurture. We will put this in a database and send the final number as AOL Philippines participation as part of the Mega Stand Up and Take Action Campaign happening from Oct. 17-19, 2008.
- No number too big or too small.. one tree that you plant and care for is better than 100 that you plant and neglect. Besides, every house needs a malunggay tree ;-)

Other Ways to Participate
- Donate seedlings/tree cuttings (fruit trees,hardwood trees,mangrove,malunggay, anything but acacia mangium) or seeds..
- Organize a venue where trees can be planted like a school/watershed so we can hook you up with people that would like to plant trees but have no venue (accessibility is important and logistics will be up to you so think about where you will be transporting those trees..).
- Mobilize other groups, NGO's, companies and schools to plant trees. The more the merrier!
- Volunteer to join any of our existing tree planting initiatives (in prisons, schools, etc.) Ina, Riza or Denise can always use an extra hand to fullfill their pledges. If you need help implementing your pledge let us know also..
- ANY OR ALL OF THE ABOVE! Why limit
yourself.. ?
If you have any questions, clarifications, ideas or comments, please email Ina <ina.a.dk@gmail.com> or Denise <deniseceldran@yahoo.com>
LETS STAND UP AND TAKE ACTION!
