Saturday, 25th April, 2009, Yayasan Tanam Pohon Indonesia organized
a Tree Planting event at Sentul City near River Bantaran. We were
joined by school students from Beacon Academy, Gandhi Memorial
International School, Hotel Aryaduta, CBJ, PT Infotech Solutions,
Soroptimist International Jakarta, IndonesiaWISE, supporters and
friends.
It was a beautiful day, with not a cloud in the sky. The YTPI
members demonstrated the correct method to plant the tree saplings as
provided in each pit with fertilizer, supporting bamboo stick and
string. It was the first time for many children to actually go down on
their knees on bare earth and plant a tree. Similar to giving mother
Earth a massage and partaking in a completely selfless act of giving.
Choose to plant trees as your next company CSR (Corporate Social
Responsibility) project, and we can support you.
