TEAMWORK FOR TREES

Together with the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), United Nations Biodiversity Finance Initiative (BIOFIN), World Wide Fund for Nature, Ramon Aboitiz Foundation (RAFI), Century Pacific, Ayala Land and Friends of HOPE, Gcash will plant 120,000 timber trees in Bulacan’s Ipo Watershed, 26,596 timber trees in Pangasinan’s Alaminos Carbon Forest, 300,000 fruit and timber trees in Cebu’s Luyang Watershed, and 500,000 coconut trees in the provinces of South Cotabato and Sarangani.

“With our current partnerships, we will be planting at least an additional 400,000 trees this 2022 to bring our total up to 1.3 million trees. We hope to further scale the positive impact of the Gforest movement in 2022 as Gcash continuously engages fresh and old partners to find new sites to reforest and farmer-beneficiaries to help,” explains Gcash President and CEO Martha Sazon.
