Make New York City a Little Greener
Join JetBlue and MillionTreesNYC to Put Down Roots on April 17, 2010 and plant hundreds of trees on front and backyards in Queens, New York! Trees clean the air, cool streets and homes, encourage active living, and slow global warming—there are so many benefits from simply doing One Thing That's Green.
Bring along friends and family! Breakfast and lunch will be served, and all volunteers will receive a branded t-shirt recognizing this great event. Activities and prizes for kids age 14 under will be given out throughout the day.
Register now! All volunteers must register and complete a waiver. It is recommended that all participating volunteers be at least 14 years old and must be accompanied by an adult. Young adults ages 14 to 17 must have a signed waiver from a parent or guardian to participate.
Do your One Thing That's Green! Together with our partners MillionTreesNYC, 106.7 Lite FM, 103.5 KTU and Power 105.1, JetBlue will make a lasting difference on this community and continue to evolve our commitment to greening the Big Apple.
