The Mountains to Sound Greenway Education Program teaches 4th-10th grade students in King County schools about the challenge of sustaining a healthy, natural environment in balance with the needs of a growing population. Teachers may sign up for an in-class activity, a field study trip to a forest ecosystem at Tiger Mountain, and/or an ecological restoration event, where students care for native plants, remove invasive weeds or plant native trees and shrubs.

Your gift directly creates opportunities for more children to receive high-quality, experience-based science education; many of whom have never before set foot in a forest. Your gift of:

• $30,000 will add to initial program grants to fully fund the Greenway outdoor education program for a school year.
