Rotary E-Club of Global Trekkers
"TREES FOR TRIBUTARIES"
By purchasing Tree E-Certificates you will be helping us to improve the lives of people by supporting projects that enhance health, education, economic development, and the environment, thus advancing international peace.
The goal of this fundraiser is to raise $2,000 in contributions to support the service projects and work of the Global Trekkers in the Rotary year 2023-24.
What is Rotary Global Trekkers involvement in the "Trees for Tributaries" Project?
In May 2023, volunteers planted trees: Black Willow, Nine Bark, Red Osier Dogwood, and Silky Dogwood on a small parcel of land bordering the Susquehanna River just below Otsego Lake. Last year, these volunteers planted over 200 trees along a nearby creek. Other members of Global Trekkers also participate in planting native trees and flora in their respective countries to help preserve the environment.

Trees are ideal gifts for the environment because they:
-
Stop soil erosion
-
Trap atmospheric carbon
-
Make excellent timber
-
Can reseed themselves
-
Are a renewable resource
-
Are a spur to economic & community development
-
They beautify the land
-
Provide a home for native animals
-
It's so relaxing to sit under a tree
-
It's so much fun to climb a tree...
