Project EverGreen Enlists Marine Veteran and Screen Personality
as Spokesperson for its GreenCare for Troops Program
Project EverGreen has enlisted a well-known veteran, former Marine Gunnery Sergeant R. Lee Ermey, the
"Gunny," to serve as a celebrity spokesperson for its recently announced public service program, "GreenCare for
Troops - Serving You While You Serve Us."
"Gunny has become a familiar face through his many film and TV roles," said Den Gardner, executive director of
Project EverGreen. "Equally important, as a veteran Leatherneck, he is in total agreement with the mission of
GreenCare for Troops. We look forward to working with him to ensure news of the program reaches those who can benefit
from it most."
GreenCare for Troops is designed to help affected families of armed forces personnel whose major breadwinner is serving in the Middle East.
Eligible families can register with Project EverGreen to receive a year's free lawn and landscape care from local lawn and landscape
contractors who are volunteering their services.
Contractors interested in volunteering or in obtaining more information about GreenCare for Troops should access the Project EverGreen
website at www.projectevergreen.com or call toll-free at (877) 758-4835.
