MELVILLE, N.Y., April 24, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- With forest fires and severe weather sweeping the country and taking their toll on trees nationwide, Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, stays steadfast in its commitment to support the Arbor Day Foundation's "Replanting Our Forests" program. The Company successfully helped to contribute to the planting or distribution of 460,000 trees in the United States since 2009.
"It is through such initiatives that we demonstrate our dedication to Kyosei, engaging in activities that promote social and environmental responsibility," says Toyotsugu Kuwamura, executive vice president and general manager, Business Imaging Solutions Group, Canon U.S.A., Inc. "We are thrilled to help the Arbor Day Foundation revitalize forests in the United States in connection with their survival for future generations." The Arbor Day Foundation implements reforestation initiatives across the country to rebuild forests that are in desperate need of regrowth. Through this program, Canon helps contribute to the distribution and planting of one tree for every eligible imageRUNNER ADVANCE multifunction system sold from April 1, 2018 to December 31, 2018, up to a maximum of 50,000 trees. With the company's support, The Foundation plans to plant and distribute trees in Bastrop Lost Pines Forest in Texas to support wildlife habitat improvement, Superior National Forest in Minnesota to help climate resiliency, and Withlacoochee State Forest in Florida for watershed restoration purposes. "Canon's corporate support is an incredible benefit to our program and we thank the team for their ongoing support," says Dan Lambe, president, Arbor Day Foundation. "Their contributions can be seen through revitalized forests and communities that, until recently, had lost the benefits that a full forest brings to the environment."
