Cast Your Vote for Trees
Make Cities Cleaner, Greener, and More Beautiful

Click to Vote by September 1, 2008

This holiday weekend, American Express is inviting the public to help nominate projects that can make a difference in the world, and ultimately decide which projects get $2.5 million in funding.

On behalf of local grassroots volunteers nationwide, we submitted a project idea, "Making Cities Cleaner, Greener and More Beautiful". If you like the idea of volunteers planting city shade trees across the nation, then help spread the word on message boards or ask your friends for their 'vote' through Sep 1. It takes only one minute.

AmEx considers many factors in selecting finalists for the challenge. We believe just a few votes from our friends in urban forestry will give this national project a good chance for consideration.

To vote, click on the NOMINATE button at this link.

You do not have to be an AmEx cardholder to vote. (click Register as Guest)

Thanks for caring about city trees and have a great holiday weekend!
