The staff at Safe Harbor Hospice has formed a "green team" to help reduce their carbon footprint and take better care of Mother Earth. The green team has four major factors they focus on: Recycling, energy conservation, education, and volunteering.

The team has set the office up to recycle cardboard, paper, plastic, and aluminum cans. They also educate the staff and family members on energy conservation and the benefits of recycling. The green team members volunteer their time on the weekend to help clean up a portion of one of the local communities. This project is done once every quarter.

"I feel being active and giving back to the community is very important", stated Amy Keller, director of patient care and clinical services.

Safe Harbor Hospice is dedicated to reducing its carbon footprint and making the environment a better place for all.
