Yellow Pages supports the Trust as part of the Yellow Woods
Challenge - the simple, educational and fun environmental
campaign for schools run in partnership with 100+ local
authorities.
The Challenge aims to:
-
recycle old Yellow Pages
directories
-
educate children about
woodland and the environment
-
support the Trust’s ‘Tree For
All’ campaign.
Schoolchildren simply
recycle old Yellow Pages directories and learn about the
environment with campaign mascot, Kirk. Schools that recycle the
most directories per pupil win cash prizes from Yellow Pages.
There are also prizes for building sculptures from recycled
Yellow Pages and for demonstrating community involvement and
environmental education in action.
For every pound awarded to
schools, Yellow Pages gives a matching pound to the
Trust. Since the Challenge launched in September 2002, more than
1.7 million schoolchildren have taken part. To date, £250,000
has been awarded to schools in prize money and £250,000 given to
us. For more information, visit:
