Project Learning Tree


About GreenWorks!

The GreenWorks! program, founded by Project Learning Tree in 1992, gives students a chance to apply classroom environmental education to community improvement projects. Since 2007, Esurance has partnered with PLT to bring GreenWorks! grants to schools in communities where Esurance Associates work and live. Read about current projects. You can find out about the national GreenWorks! grant program at http://www.greenworks.org/.

“Engaging young people in environmental stewardship was at the heart of why Esurance teamed with PLT to provide GreenWorks! grants in the communities where our associates work and live,” said Kristin Brewe, Esurance Director of Brand and Public Relations. “By fostering a lasting bod between young people and our environment, our communities will benefit for years to come.”

“Esurance is helping PLT extend GreenWorks! grants to exciting and worthwhile projects that may not have been able to go forward otherwise,” said Kathy McGlauflin, Senior Vice President of Education for the American Forest Foundation. “PLT and Esurance share a commitment to leadership, environmental education, and community participation.”
