The Nature Conservancy and the Toyota USA Foundation announced on Monday an expansion of Leaders in Environmental Action for the Future (LEAF) – a comprehensive environmental leadership program for teenagers and educators.

The Foundation’s gift of $800,000 will build on LEAF’s 16 years of success in New York City by doubling the number of students and high schools with environmental programs served. In 2010, the program will support 10 high schools in the New York metro area. The long-term goal is to expand LEAF into over 30 high school environmental programs in urban areas across the country, ultimately serving more than 20,000 students.
