The GreenCare for Troops initiative by Project EverGreen is dedicated to making a difference in the lives of deployed service members and post-9/11 disabled veterans and their families.

In an effort to help support the cause, Nufarm, a leading supplier to the lawn and landscape market, donated $150,000 to Project EverGreen on behalf of GreenCare for Troops.

"Nufarm is keenly aware of the importance of community outreach and involvement. GreenCare for Troops embodies the company's core values, and allows us to put them in action in real-life situations," says Sean Casey, Nufarm vice president. "I can't think of a better way to extend the outreach and community involvement of our employees than to help volunteers provide complimentary lawn and landscape services to the families of deployed military personnel and post-9/11 disabled veterans."

The donated funds will be used to expand and update the national initiative created and managed by Project EverGreen. This includes: increased volunteer outreach and recruitment, communications to families, volunteers and the media, as well as adding promotional and logistical resources required to grow the GreenCare for Troops database and serve more military families and veterans.
