Green T's Seeds are Springing to Life!

These are exciting times as Green T moves to the next level. Our new website is up and running and we're really looking forward to our next event on September 17th in Palgrave. We call these environmentally-inspirational speakers' nights Green Teas and they are hosted by Green T five times per year. To date they have been funded by small donations at the door and the proceeds of raffles and very small silent auctions. A grant from the Town of Caledon Community Green Funds has allowed us to kick things up a notch in terms of community awareness for our organization through the creation of a logo, the new website and our exciting soon-to-be-launched electronic newsletter Green Thoughts. Simultaneously we are embarking on our first-ever Membership Drive which will help raise the funds necessary to see Green T continue to flourish and grow.

Commencing with our November Green Tea event there will be a modest door charge of $4 per person. Students and Seniors will be admitted to these events for free.

If you choose to purchase an Annual Membership, for just $24, you will be admitted to all Green Tea events at no charge. In addition you'll receive a discount off any special workshops or other events and, of course, our new electronic newsletter. The first 50 paid memberships will also receive a fabulous new Green T (shirt) in your choice of Fresh Lime or Forest Green! But, most of all, your Membership will help cover ongoing costs for room rentals and refreshments, and will keep Green T growing and spreading the environmental message. Please join us in our mission of inspiring people to go from "Awareness to Action"!
