WOBURN, MA--(Marketwire - May 7, 2010) - GerrityStone -- New England's premier interior and exterior custom stonework and granite specialist -- is proud to announce they are participating in the 'Seed Our Future' campaign, an international reforestation project to help reduce the effects of global climate change.
An effort benefitting the Seed the Future non-profit organization, the campaign launched on April 22 to commemorate Earth Day, and for every person that signs up to become a follower of GerrityStone on Facebook at www.facebook.com/gerritystonema, GerrityStone will donate a tree in their name in the location of their choice worldwide. Additionally, a 'Seed our Future' card will be sent with instructions on how to pick a location for the tree planting, and participants will also receive regular updates on the progress of the campaign through GerrityStone's Facebook page.
"We've taken a corporate sustainability pledge to lead the industry from the inside out -- from helping to restore forests, to offering a variety of innovative green products, or guiding customers in selecting stone surfacing materials to help them maximize LEED points towards certification of a project," notes Jack Parquette, president of GerrityStone. "This 'Seed Our Future' program is simple, quick and gives everyone the opportunity to help our planet."
GerrityStone specializes in custom stone fabrication and installation for kitchen countertops, bathroom vanities, fireplace and fireplace surrounds, and outdoor living spaces.
