Georgia-Pacific contributed to the Trust for Public Land for the preservation and renovation of the Medgar and Myrlie Evers Home in Jackson, Mississippi. Just days before the 60th anniversary of the death of renowned Civil Rights activist Medgar Evers, his home was officially designated as a national monument. The Trust for Public Land played an important role in maintaining its status as a site of education and inspiration.

Chris Graham, senior vice president of compliance and ethics and Georgia Advisory Board for the Trust for Public Land board member, and Curley Dossman, vice president of community relations, are pictured in front of the Medgar and Myrlie Evers Home in Jackson Mississippi.
