Thank you
U.S. Forest Service

As part of its responsible business plan, Citizen Verizon, Verizon partnered with the National Forest Foundation to thank individuals who have dedicated their professional careers to protecting America’s National Forests—the U.S. Forest Service personnel.

As the effects of climate change exacerbate wildfires and the impacts of COVID-19 spur an unprecedented increase in visitations, Forest Service staff continue to selflessly work and often put their lives in danger to ensure these public lands thrive now and for many generations to come.

In addition to sharing messages of support, encouragement, and thanks from Verizon’s employees, Verizon’s generous grant will plant 100,000 trees on National Forest lands. These native trees will help provide fresh air, clean water, and remove carbon from the environment.

A single tree planted on a National Forest can store a half ton of carbon dioxide over its lifetime, helping mitigate climate change.

Having a 10 year old, it's important that I help him create his sense of adventure. One way that we have done that is through hiking and exploring nature. We had the opporutnity to visit Wayne National Forest last summer and it was such a great experience!

We appreciate all that you do to take care of our earth so that we can enjoy it.

By planting the right species in the right places, reforestation improves forest health and helps make our forests more resilient to future challenges like climate change and wildfire.

Dear Forest Service Personnel,

Team,

I was excited to have this opportunity to express my gratitude to, what I consider, invaluable global hero's. The US Forest Service contributes all efforts to keeping our planet whole by preserving the precious resources that seem to be so overlooked.
