GreenWorks! Initiative
Begun in 1992, GreenWorks! grants give students a chance to apply classroom learning to community projects. The projects act as an extension to the environmental education materials that PLT provides to teachers through professional development workshops. Esurance is supporting grants to schools in five communities nationwide where it has offices.
