Raptis Pax contributed 1000 trees in the Living Tree Project

27 November 2008

JEWISH National Fund Victoria and Greening Australia have participated in a ceremonial tree planting at Balyang Sanctuary in Geelong, as part of the Living Trees Project.

The ceremony, which saw fruit-and-vegie king and Geelong AFL club president Frank Costa planting gum saplings, celebrated the donation of 1000 trees.

The trees will be planted to help revive an arid region of Australia in honour of a business relationship between a major backer of Living Trees and one of the company's key customers.

To symbolise its links with the Costa group, Queensland-based packaging manufacturer Raptis Pax donated the trees, which will help revive 150,000 square kilometres of arid land in Australia.
