Dear Tourism StakeHolders,
SUB: Trees For Tourism Tree Planting Trips 20th Sept-16th October 2026:
Greetings from Greening Uganda AND Pearl of Africa Vacations. As the World Celebrates the 46th World Tourism Day on 27tth September, in Partnership with Pearl of Africa Vacations, we will be moving to Bugoma, Budongo, Mabira, Mpanga Central Forest Reserves (CFRs) for restoration tree planting trip 20th September to 16th October 2026.
This is done every year under our CSR PROJECT "Trees For Tourism", in essence Tourism is all about Nature, and it is UNFAIR for us to extract or use without giving back to mother Uganda, mother Earth. For details on the "Trees For Tourism Project" kindly visit https://greeninguganda.org/Projects/Trees_For_Tourism
To view 100's of our past activity photos, kindly visit our project Gallery at https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?vanity=50milliontrees&set=a.2529081817138415 AND under our Urban Wildlife Conservation Project, we will also be working in partnership with various Urban Authorities to plant fruit and berries plants on the streets, for further info, visit https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1307854489261160&type=3
WITH Funds DONATED by Pearl of Africa Vacations, we have been able to plant thousands of trees in public schools, for details visit https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.884022997621936&type=3

CLIMATE CHANGE ACTION/RESPONSE:
When we plant trees in our communities, Schools, Churches, Mosques, Working & Business Spaces, urban areas, they help in carbon sequestering by capturing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and transforming it into biomass through photosynthesis.
A mature seedling of 40cm to 90cm that will not easily die after planting costs US$2.5 To DONATE by Bank, Mobile Money, and other ways, kindly visit us at https://greeninguganda.org/Donations
URBAN WILDLIFE CONSERVATION:
As urban development continues to squeeze spaces for Urban Wildlife, we invite you as an individual or company e.g. Hotels, Lodges, Restaurants to embrace planting of fruit, nuts, and berries bearing trees in compounds to support urban wildlife e.g. Birds, monkeys, squirrels, butterflies, bats, and many unknown to us wildlife. These trees include Guavas, mangoes, papayas, euginea, Jambula, Musizi, ficus nantalensis (Mutuba), ficus sycomorous (Mukunyu), for more details visit https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1307854489261160&type=3
If dont have space, you can donate these trees to URBAN Authorities to plant these trees in their spaces or streets.
