Approximately 1,000 employees from 24 companies participated in the EarthShare of Georgia Earth Day 2010 Corporate Green Day Challenge, volunteering at 20 locations to clean up parks and stream banks, plant gardens, mulch trees and trails. This year, Bank of America and Tomorrow Pictures were the winning teams.  Bank of America’s participation went from 30 in 2009 to 250 this year at Chastain Park, and first time participant Tomorrow Pictures brought their entire staff of 9 and EOS Marketing to help improve Riverside Community Garden, an inner city community project.  A special thanks goes to Park Pride for hosting projects at Washington Park, West End Park, Orme Park and co-hosting projects with the Friends of Collins Park. As an EarthShare of Georgia member group, they are leading the way in the move to create world-class parks in the City of Atlanta!  Other EarthShare of Georgia member groups that provided projects this year were Callaway Gardens, Georgia Organics, Reynolds Nature Preserve, Trees Atlanta and the Upper Chattahoochee Riverkeeper. Founded by its member charities in 1988, EarthShare is an opportunity for caring employees and workplaces to support hundreds of environmental charities through workplace giving campaigns. A workplace giving campaign is an annual, employer-sponsored program that lets employees contribute a few dollars per paycheck as their charitable donation. The EarthShare Difference: you don’t have to choose between caring for public health or our air, water, land or wildlife.   Just one gift through EarthShare can support them all. Every year, EarthShare raises funds for more than 400 community, national and international member charities in hundreds of campaigns at public and private sector workplaces across the country. Today EarthShare represents 71 national organizations and hundreds of local groups in 19 states. EarthShare’s member charities work hard every day to safeguard your health, our quality of life and the natural resources we depend on. All of these efforts are supported by EarthShare’s mission: To engage individuals and organizations in creating a healthy and sustainable environment.  Learn more about EarthShare!
