On September 27, 2024, Treescape Planet Organization, in collaboration with Samasource Uganda (https://www.sama.com/), launched the Sama Green Tree Planting Initiative at East Kololo Primary School, Kampala. This event marked a pivotal moment in promoting environmental sustainability and community engagement in Uganda.

The initiative, part of Samasource’s global CSR efforts, focuses on combating deforestation, biodiversity loss, and climate change through active tree planting and environmental education. Over 150 native and fruit-bearing trees were planted by pupils, teachers, Samasource employees, and local community members, fostering a sense of ownership and responsibility for the environment.

Key achievements include:

1. Tree Planting: 150 trees planted at East Kololo Primary School, with a significant additional support of 90 trees for Gombe Secondary School, furthering our efforts in environmental education and green school initiatives.
2. Engaging Employees: Samasource employees actively participated in the planting process, helping to bridge the gap between corporate responsibility and community engagement.
3. Training Sessions: Special training sessiosn were held for employees focusing on environmental stewardship, sustainable practices, and the importance of preserving natural resources for future generations.
4. Environmental Education: Hands-on sessions that educated students and community members on biodiversity, the importance of trees, and sustainable practices.
5. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR): Samasource’s continued involvement demonstrates the potential for corporate entities to play a significant role in environmental conservation.

As we look ahead, the Sama Green Initiative will expand to more schools, with a focus on ensuring the long-term survival of planted trees and engaging local communities in tree care. Future phases of the project include regular monitoring, reporting, and forging additional partnerships to scale the initiative across Uganda.

This initiative serves as a model for how partnerships between NGOs, corporations, and communities can drive impactful, sustainable change.
