PWGreen of Port Washington NY
PWGreen is a not-for-profit organization based in Port Washington (New York). It’s an environmental action group with a mission to protect Long Island’s North Shore.
The goals of the PWGreen organization, according to its website, include:
- Working with the Port Washington School District to enhance and leverage the Guggenheim property’s environmental and educational value
- Sponsoring educational events
- Participating in community events
- Working with teachers to create environment-based learning programs
- Establishing an advisory board of recognized experts in botany, ecology and ornithology
PWGreen manned a booth at the 2009 Harborfest in Port Washington and handed out a single-page brochure describing its mission. This brochure doesn’t appear to be on their website, but you can download a PDF here: MyAppearances.com.
The website is has useful but dated information, as most pages appear not to have been updated since 2004. For instance, it hosts a 2pp handout on the Guggenheim Environmental Fund, which describes the property on the Port Washington peninsula. Little information on that fund appears to be available elsewhere.
