Think back to your childhood for just a moment. Now do you remeber "Flat Stanely"? March of the Blanketeers has a take on this concept called, "Pass-the-Tree". To spread eco-awareness (whether you like it or not, the truth is that Earth needs HELP) donate 2 dollars to our Headquarters and include your home address to recieve one of these "Flat Stanley" paper trees. Money donated helps pay for some of the cost of our enviormentalistic efforts and cover every cent of producing your tree. And don't worry, this isn't a real live tree that you have to plant in your backyard... it's just a fun gane using a depicted outline of one on a small piece of paper.
When your tree comes in the mail, write your city, and state of just country (if your sending international) and send your tree on. BUT FIRST take a picture of you and the tree, and post it to social media with the hastag #moretreeplease . Have your recipient do the same and keep the chain going. Are you part of postcrossing.com or some group or penpal service? That's okay if you're not, but if you are then get multiple trees for 50 cents extra per tre, and ad to the fun! (and the eco-awareness-type learning)
Trees come with instructions on how to play, and include a scannable code to a random eco-learning link which can be viewed using your smartphone, or tablet.
Starting in May, 2016- we will be re-vamping this game to be made 100% of handmade paper bits, so that more trees can be saved.
