THE COST OF OUR WEBSITE AND SITE MAINTENANCE ENSURE A PLATFORM IS AVAILABLE TO RECEIVE DONATIONS IS $191.25. THE MONEY WE HAVE RAISED WILL CONTINUE TO BE POOLED UNTIL WE CAN PAY TO MATCH THE 12,446 BUNDLES.
IN 2022, THE ORGANIZATION PROVIDED FREE EDUCATIONAL AND PROMOTIONAL BANNERS AND LEAFLETS TO OUR REGISTERED CAMPSITE(S). THESE BANNERS ARE DESIGNED TO ATTRACT ATTENTION, SPREAD AWARENESS OF OUR MISSION, AND SHOW HOW TO DONATE TO OUR ORGANIZATION AS WE PLANT MORE TREES TO OFFSET THE BUNDLES SOLD AT EACH REGISTERED LOCATION.
