— the national trust for ireland
The most influential environmental body in Ireland. Funding helps develop the Green Schools programme to enable more schools to participate and reduce their output of waste, energy use, and consumption of water.

“The American Ireland Fund in supporting our Green Schools project has enabled us to expand the programme to more schools throughout Ireland. These schools are now achieving on average a 45% reduction of waste and learning to reduce, recycle and reuse as a way of life.”
