CLASS RING ALTERNATIVES
Here's some ideas. We suggest you have a meeting with other students and
select one or more of these projects.
1. PROTECT-AN-ACRE
in the CHOCO-ANDEAN CORRIDOR - Get a real sense of satisfaction by sponsoring your own acre of
rainforest in Ecuador. Receive a certificate showing your support for this vital
protection project. For more details, send us an email
requesting more information.
2. ECOLOGICAL JEWELRY - Look for alternatives to the
class ring tradition which involve both ecological materials as well as profits that
support local communities.
HOW YOU CAN HELP:
Know of any ecological jewelry? Please submit details and we will
post it here.
3. PLANT A TREE IN YOUR LOCAL COMMUNITY - Investigate whether
existing tree planting projects might already exist in your own community and help to
green the neighborhoods that you live in.
4. SUPPORT ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION IN A RURAL VILLAGE IN ECUADOR.
- Help protect the half million acres of the Cotacachi Cayapas by raising
awareness amongst school children of the importance of protecting the surrounding regions.
Your funds can help to bring school children to the National Park and bring slide
shows, eco-recreational activity programs, and village nursery to their communities.
For more details, send us an email
requesting more information.
5. YOUR OWN IDEAS - Submit the project that your school
decides to take on, and we will print it here.
