I decided to volunteer at Greenwood because I want to help injured wildlife.  It's my belief that people have pushed wildlife to extreme circumstances by our development of land and agriculture and have made it harder and harder for a lot of species to survive.

It's easy to NOT get involved, but once you make the effort you realize how fun it is and it becomes addictive. Helping the less fortunate provides a tremendous amount of perspective to life.

Success Stories

Growing Gardens' ¡Cultiva! Program

Vicky Borrego
youth leader 2000
The Children's Peace Garden was an idea I came up with when I went to a youth conference in Boston. I saw the diversity of youth in the US trying hard to improve their communities.

Adopt-A-School

NCAR Warehouse Manager
Before EXTRAs! for Education we took nine truckloads to the landfill one day. Schools could have reused most of it. Now we specifically save items in the warehouse for delivery to schools.


Ned Levine

Principal of Crestview Elementary School
Thanks to furniture donations from EXTRAs! for Education we directed valuable fundraising dollars to educational projects instead of buying tables and chairs.
