Trees
for
Trails (TfT) is a project
of UNO's health science honorary, Eta Sigma Gamma. It began as a small project
in the spring of 1995. This project has worked with the National Tree Trust
and the National Arbor Day Foundation. In addition, TfT
received two KETV Celebrate Trees grants (in cooperation with the Papio-Missouri
River Natural Resources District), a Nebraska Community Enhancement Program
grant, tree donations from the Omaha World-Herald Branching Out program, and a grant from Omaha Public Power District. TfT has planted
hundreds of seedlings
and hundreds of mature trees on the Keystone and Big Papio
Trails.
