Paperboard Packaging Council, “Trees Into Cartons, Cartons Into Trees” Program
The Paperboard Packaging Council (PPC) presents an annual educational program for 4th through 6th graders that highlights the natural renewability and sustainability of paperboard packaging. The program also demonstrates the benefits of recycling. This program has such a clear connection to our business, that we are overjoyed to participate.
Pine View Wildlife Rehabilitation and Education Center
Proteus has been supporting the Pine View Wildlife Rehabilitation and Education Center for more than 10 years. Our support includes printing materials for many of their fundraising events and monetary support. In addition, a member of our sales team has been on the board of directors since 2008. The goals of Pine View include raising consciousness in regard to not only the changing status of wildlife in Wisconsin, but meeting the growing medical needs of the increasing number of wildlife patients admitted to the hospital. It is also a goal of Pine View to promote and foster awareness as to the impact human activities have on the fragile environment.
Aids Resource Center of Wisconsin (ARCW)
Proteus supports the ARCW through monetary donations and by attending their annual events. We believe the work they are doing in Wisconsin to provide comprehensive health care services and social services to the more than 2,600 Wisconsin residents living with HIV disease is invaluable.
