SUB: 2025 INTERNATIONAL DAY OF FORESTS, DONATE/PLANT A TREE:
Greetings from Greening Uganda and Happy New Year 2025. Kindly accept our humble invite to join or partner with us, as we celebrate 2025 International Day of Forests. Our major activities are Mass Tree Planting PROJECTS e.g., Green Schools, Community Tree Planting, Degraded Forest Lands Restoration, and Trees For Tourism. This year our focus is Planting 100,000 Trees in Schools along river Nile in Uganda. It is estimated more than 200-300 million people rely on the Nile River for their livelihoods. The Nile provides water for drinking, washing, and cooking for many people in the Nile region. In Egypt, 95% of the population lives within 12 miles of the Nile and depends on it for water. The Nile is a dependable source of irrigation for farming crops like wheat, corn, bananas, and sweet potatoes. In Egypt, agriculture provides 28% of jobs, and in Sudan, it employs 43% of the population. Fishing in the Nile provides employment for thousands of people. Fish are also exported, contributing to the local economy. The Nile is a major transportation route in many parts of Africa. The Nile River supports tourism in some African countries, including Egypt and Uganda.
Usually our activities focus on Urban Schools, Urban places of Worship, Urban Hospitals, Budongo & Bugoma forest degraded lands, and by the end of 60 days (March 21st-30th May 2025), a total of 3,000,000 Trees, will have been planted. This comes as a response to Climate Change, to address the increasing heat waves, rough storms, prolonged droughts, more trees will be able to provide the most needed conducive atmosphere for the communities identified above.
Similarly, planted trees will help carbon sequestering by capturing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and transforming it into biomass through photosynthesis.
