Earth share.

Put your workplace-giving dollars to work for trees by donating to AMERICAN FORESTS through Earth Share, a nationwide network of respected environmental and conservation organizations. It's a simple way to care for our health, water, air, land, and wildlife. Earth Share partners with employees and employers across the country to support hundreds of environmental groups through efficient and effective payroll deduction giving.

With payroll-deduction giving, you pledge that a small amount of each paycheck be automatically deducted; when that money goes to AMERICAN FORESTS, you're helping to grow a healthier world with trees and forests. Your payroll deduction contribution can also count as your membership to AMERICAN FORESTS.

As a member of Earth Share, AMERICAN FORESTS participates annually in the largest workplace giving campaign in the nation, the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) for employees of the federal government and the U.S. military. Federal government or military employees can give to AMERICAN FORESTS through the CFC by entering code # 901 on their pledge card during the next fund drive.

Several local United Ways include Earth Share in their list of charities, including Washington, DC; Rhode Island; and San Diego, California. And more and more workplaces are allowing employees to consider Earth Share for employee workplace giving. Among them: American Express, American Airlines, Aveda, Dell, Emory University, Harvard University, HBO, Hewlett Packard, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Sears, Tom's of Maine, and many others.
